This morning, we noticed that, while cornering in the Focus, the brake warning light briefly illuminated and on checking the brake fluid reservoir, the level was approaching the lower limit. For the first time in my life, I have to top-up the brake fluid - but I am slightly concerned about obtaining fluid with the correct specification.
The handbook says "Use Motorcraft Brake Fluid Super Dot 4 or brake fluid meeting he specification ESD-M6C 57-A. Meanwhile, Eurocarparts advertise their Pagid Dot4 brake fluid as meeting FMVSS 116 DOT 4 - SAE 1703 - ISO 4925.
Can any of you chaps advise me, please, are these the same thing?
I automatically assume that we will have to keep our eyes on the fluid level to monitor any loss from from the system.
Thanks as usual, H
