Re: dot 5.1 brake fluid mixing with old fluids

Hi guys,

I just wanted to know if I am ok to use this brake fluid with my new z32 brakes, my car Had used normal brake fluid & I believe these brakes have too. Dont know what to do, as I head using diffrent fluid can cause problems, hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance guys!!
 
i've heard that too. old fluid often gets condensation in the lines causing water in the lines, if ur upgrading better to bleed the lot and know its all fresh in there and not the drip tray after a night out on the lash lol
 
Dot 5.1 superceeds dot 4.0, so its compatible with systems stating dot 3 or 4, however as has been said, not much point mixing old and new
 
Thanks for the help guys!!

I will be bleeding the system but I thought there will still be traces that will cause problems, like harden or something wired like that.
