Description

Genuine Apec · Part no. ABF3001

Safety: Warning. Causes serious eye irritation. Suspected of damaging fertility. Suspected of damaging the unborn child. Read the label before use.

Apec ABF3001 is a 1 litre bottle of DOT 4 brake and clutch fluid. The maker states it meets FMVSS 116 DOT 4 and DOT 3, SAE J 1703 and J 1704, and ISO 4925, and it has a high boiling point, a low-moisture formula against vapour lock and corrosion protection. A litre is enough for a full fluid change on most cars.

Good to know

• Is DOT 4 right for my car? Check the handbook or the brake fluid reservoir cap for the DOT grade; this fluid also meets DOT 3, so it suits cars that ask for either.
• Litre or a smaller bottle? Take the litre for a full change or bleeding the whole system, which usually takes up to about a litre; a smaller bottle is for top-ups.
• When should the fluid be changed? Brake fluid takes in moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point, so follow the change interval in the service schedule.
