Brake Fluid

[BOBD]

Getting ready to do a brake flush. Looks like ATE SL.6 is about the best there is.Has anyone else used this fluid.

Use valvoline from Wal-Mart or your local auto parts store.... Your 4runner won't know the difference but your wallet will.

I run unicorn blood in my Aston (um, $75 per liter), but I also track that car so I don't spare a penny on my brakes.

I flushed the brake fluid on my 4Runner when I put on my new calipers, pads, rotors, and lines. Used the normal stuff from Advanced Auto (Penzoil, I think?), $9 for the large bottle. No issues at all and the thing stops like nobody's business.

Don't waste your money on high-end stuff, you don't need it in the 4Runner.
