    i recently purchase Adam rotors and pads in the GB.
    Just wondering... i might as well do the brake flush when i get those installed.

    Please advise below:
    how many litres of brake fluid i need?
    What brand is recommended? (motul dot4?)
    how many hours of labour?
    what is the estimated total cost for the above?
    where in melbourne can i get this done?

    thanks in advance

      Please advise below:
      how many litres of brake fluid i need? About 600- 700mm
      What brand is recommended? (motul dot4?) Any Dot 4 fluid
      how many hours of labour? About 15/20 min... Can be done in less time.
      what is the estimated total cost for the above? Depends on the workshop you go to...

      2) Any Dot 4 fluid.
      3) About 15/20 min... Can be done in less time.
      4) Depends on the workshop you go to...

        Depends how you do it but I can get by with 500ml. most people use a litre.
        Motul is good.... or Ferodo... or Castrol Silver bottle for the budget minded
        If you have the wheels off to do pads & rotors then about 5 mins (tops) per caliper
        pass

          thanks heaps!
          a workshop told me:
          3hours to do the job and will cost around $300-400

          from the above advise, sound like this workshop going to lighten my wallet when i send my car in.

            3 hours to bleed the brakes or 3 hours to replace pads/rotors & bleed brakes? 3 hours would be worst case for the whole job including road test & handbrake adjustment if you haven't done it before but were an experienced mech. If you knew what you were doing, 2.5hrs would be enough
