beastgtir Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 blimey, sounds a little on the high side?depends on how much u wanna do, its probably 2.5 litres if empty, i'd just get 2 litres and flush through 1 litre then top up and bleed with the other.

harVTEC Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 Well I need to fully fill mine as I've drained the lot when I took off all calipers for painting. So will need three times the normal amount to fully run it through and fill up Thanks.harVTEC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harVTEC Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 Has anybody got an official figure? In a Haynes manual of anything? I need to purchase some and my local motor factors (old boys, been going to them for years) were a bit surprised wihen I asked for 8 litres. I explained I'd be running it all through but even then they thought it was a bit high.Cheers.harVTEC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
