Brake fluid S2 EXIGE

Post by martins » Sat Aug 16, 2014 5:32 pm

What is the usual brake fluid for an S2 240 exige? Also does anyone know how to fool the abs into acting as a pump to push out the old fluid?

I have a pressure bleeder if you want. Oh and DOT4 or if your feeling flush SRF600. Both of which I have.

I will borrow the pressure bleeder if that is ok. Does it come with instructions??? What is the price difference between the DOT4 and the SRF600?
