NEW BRAKES....DOT 5?

Then what are you arguing Meester Eye roller??:poke:
DOT 5 works just fine and doesnt peel paint. As I said 9 years since I've converted and ZERO issues. Zip zilch nada, AND if I remember correctly, Dad n I drained the DOT 3 down and out the bleeders until the MC was empty, then added DOT 5 directly ON TOP of the 3. Bled the piss outta them till DOT 5 came out the bleeders. :steering:

Well, I'm not really arguing anything, really. Just giving an opinion. That's still allowed, as of now. There's no NEED for DOT5 in our cars. That cannot be argued. All they NEED is DOT3.

I'm not a slob, so I don't get brake fluid everywhere and if an accident does happen, it's water soluble, so it hoses right off.

Never made any comments about getting DOT3 and 5 mixed. Only that DOT5 does not absorb moisture AND that there is always "some moisture" in the system. Those points are true.

So, what is your argument?
