Brake Fluids

Hi everyone,

 

I understood that the following Brake Fluids are best to be used on the Gallardo 04/05 Models:

 

ATE DOT 4

Motul RBF 600

RBF 600 Racing

Castrol GT-LMA brake

Castrol SRF DOT 4

 

Unluckily I live in the south of Spain and its hard to get these specific ones. Now I heard that you can

basically use any DOT4 Brake Fluid for a Gallardo? Does anyone know anything about that?

 

all the best from spain,

Chris

 

 

You can't get ATE Gold near you? Most BMW and Audi dealers will have it.

 

Try the ATE Gold Typ200 or Motul RBF 600 if you can get it.

 

But yes, any *quality* DOT 4 brake fluid will work. If you are not tracking your car then it's really not a big deal at all. The only advantage to the more expensive fluids is the dry/wet boiling points - Both of which you will never come close to on the street.

You can also source from Porsche dealer their stock fluid. I think it is pentosin.
