What little I know about brake fluids was probably doubled when I read the "Castrol SRF" thread with insights from RobZ71LM7, OneQuartLow and others. It occurs to me that in all liklihood my brake fluid is the stuff that left the factory 10 years ago. I don't auto-cross and in 15 months I have braked and stalled it just once, that was not an all-out panic stop.
I am of the opinion that if I'm going to replace something on this car, I want to do it right, and I want to replace it with really, really good stuff.
Is there such a thing as used brake fluid analysis? If so, would there be a POINT in having one done? In terms of flushing it, would it be a good idea to replace it with standard quality fluid for X amount of time and then remove that and replace it with super-duper stuff? And what super-duper stuff to replace it with?
Thanks!
