use ATE SL6 Dot 4 Brake Fluid or go for dealer's 45 pounds brake fluid service?

Featured Replies

Hi, got my 05Reg 1.6fsi hatchback for 7 months now, car runs fine. But there is no record for previous brake fluid change, although the colour of brake fluid still looks fresh yellow. Just decided to change it.

Got 1L unopen ATE SL6 Dot 4 Brake Fluid in garage which regular used for my previous BMW E46, which great for ESP system. And local garage will charge half hour around 30 to change it. By the way, same as the ECP item http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Octavia_1.6_2005/p/car-accessories/engine-oils-and-car-fluids/auxiliary-fluids/brake-fluid/?524770042&0&cc5_179

Octavia got lots stuff like ABS+MBA+MSR+ASR, still not sure what are all of them. Will ATE SL6 Dot 4 Brake Fluid good to use in them as well?

Anyone used SKoda dealers 45 pounds brake fluid service before? Any good?

Thanks in advance.

For £45 all in at a dealer thats what id go for to be honest.

If you are not doing it yourself - I'd take it to a dealer for the 45 quid deal. They will also bleed the clutch at the same time - it's on the same circuit.
