Brake Fluid

[Stephen06GT]

I used the Super Blue year round when OlPaint was my DD. No issues.

I have never heard of any brake fluid being a 'summer only' fluid. I can't say I've checked, but I would assume DOT certification would have some sort of temperature requirements in it.

ATE TYPE 200 Amber Brake Fluid is designed to excel within the extreme demands made on a race vehicle or by high performance drivers and exceeds all DOT4 standards. It is compatible with and will mix well with most DOT3, DOT4 or DOT 5.1 fluids.
The formula offers a minimal drop in boiling point due to outstanding water binding properties resulting in a long-lasting fluid that may not need to be changed for up to 3 years under normal highway driving conditions. Products with a lower wet boiling point have to be replaced considerably more often (e.g., DOT3 products should be replaced annually). The overall high dry and wet boiling points make this fluid an excellent choice for street driven vehicles, too, where brake fluid is flushed less frequently than that in race-driven vehicles.
Features/Benefits of ATE TYP 200 Amber Brake Fluid:

• Boiling point minimum: 536 degrees F
• Wet boiling point minimum: 388 degrees F
• Viscosity at -104 degrees F: max 1,400 mm 2/5
• Designed to last up to 3 years under normal highway driving conditions

Use it in everything from my previous daily drivers to my sled, first time Ram needs brakes, it'll have it as well.

Did well first track season
Used this but last session did not do too well
Brakes became quite spongy/ mushy after first session out
Going to switch it up this season maybe

I used this in my last Fox, immediate difference compared to the normal fluids from CTC.
No brake fade at all.
Not cheap, but NV Auto in Hamilton has it on the shelf.

I just remembered that I still have 2 unopened bottles of Motul Dot5.1 sitting at home. I guess I will use them first.

It says in the technical data sheet that "Exceeds DOT 5.1 and DOT 3 standards also, except for viscosity at -40 deg C (-40 deg F)."
I gather that was why it is not recommended for cold weather use?

I saw a few businesses selling it for $25ish on Kijiji.

Last time I got the Bremsflüssigkeit was from some Porsche performance shop up here in Concord.
