Ask himI have just took the RR P38 in to change the break fluid, and i asked what one he was going to put in he said DOT 4, i told him i wanted 5.1 or 6 he seemed to be fine with that and wrote it down on the service sheet, got back home and he rang me (I'm talking about a Vauxhall dealership here) and asked why i wanted 5.1 or 6 (i know synthetics are better for a whole host of reasons) and i know there more expensive than mineral ones, i just said I had 5.1 in there already and the car weighs 2.5 ton and it doesn't attract water like the older type fluid, and he seemed happy with that, so as far as i know he's will put 5.1 in, but it just bugs me as to why he would ask anyway??
I just got another call from the dealer telling me the ABS light is on, and as it will need repairing its a waist of time doing the brake fluid as when I change it to one that works i will have to change the fluid again..... I told him to drive it up the road for 100 yards and the light will go out, because the pump is still pressurising the system (am i right in saying this?) all I really know is the ABS light duz go out after a few yards of driving, and its always been that way, so I don't think anything is wrong with the system
