Best brake fluid? and pads?

[Daz_172]

can someone tell what the best brake fluid to use is in a clio 172 2002? road use only not for tack use!

Ive also bought some ferrodo ds2500 front pads are these pads ok for road use? or are they just for racing track use?:dapprove:

And finally i want some new front discs should i get sum grovved and vented discs or just 2 more standard renault one?

ds2500's are mainly for fast road use i believe.
id go for standard renault discs. (around 98 quid from the stealers..)

just any branded dot 4 fluid i think.

i spent mega ££ on silkolene but some good castrol stuff should be fine.

Yeah castrol response, DOT 4 or the super response DOT 4

castrol response super dot 4.........do it

ds2500's are the bizz, fine for noraml road use, not just fast road, and great on trck too. If you're staying off the track i would get std discs, but from Renault, in my experience a lot of pattern parts are crap, but i'd like to be proven wrong! Again, for road use i would use any premium brand dot 4.

Standard disk or Brembo disk there no difference realy Brebos have the advantage of wear indicators though so if your using ds2500's you can tell if your disks are worn as you may go though disks faster than pads.
You can get that Castrol stuff from Halfords £10 per liter I use it in my cars and its great never had any trouble. You may find they only have one bottle at a time for sale and although at quick glace it looks like the normal castrol stuff it has a slightly different lable from the £7 a liter bottle.

[Daz]

I needed 1L (leaves a bit spare) for my Williams.

I paid £9.99 from Halfords for it.
