Re: Brake bleeding order



Well, this Valvoline stuff is half the price of Super Blue, readily
available (I don't have to oreder it or drive half way across Long Island)
,and I don't have ABS. I don'texpect it to cause any problems in an abs
equpped car, either. Is Super Blue synthetic? What is the BMW fluid made
from?
