Default brake fluids.

i was going to replace my brake fluid, went out and bought some valvoline syn power fluid. read through the manual and it said do not use synthetic fluids? i got online and started searching for other fluids to use, but it seemed like all the other brands were also synthetic. so whats the deal here?

Motul works great and as if stock brakes couldn't get any better. Put that fluid in and get a more aggressive pad. Damn just imagine if you put the steel braided lines on as well.

yeah. talked to a friend and if your bleeding the whole system, synthetic was ok, just not if you are topping the system off. went ahead and bled the system and ran the valvoline stuff through it for the auto-x this weekend. i'm redoing it with ATE super blue + race pad before i hit summit point in july.
