Flushing my brake fluid, How much should I buy?

[Bluebeard]

I've donea search but canny find nowt.

Anyone help a nigga?

Its a mk1 Clio 16v if that helps. Cheers.

 

[Da]

Can't say 100% for the Mk1, but on the Mk2's it's less than 2 litres.
About 1.75 from memory.

ill check autodata now

 

[Dunn]

it says the 1.8 16v is 0.5 litres at dot 4

 

[Bluebeard]

So If I buy 1.5 litres that will be enough to flush all the old shite out you think?

 

[MikeB]

I think its around 2 litres to flush it and change.

 

[Bluebeard]

Ok that makes it easier. The site i'm looking at seems to be cheaper to buy two one litre bottles than to buy one 1.5l bottle. :S

 

[DannyR]

You don't have ABS do you? 1 Litre should be fine

 

[Bluebeard]

I have an ABS pump but no ABS.

Someone i work with always puts around 1.5-2l through the system
