How much brake fluid in td4

[mbrokof]

Hi,
I went for MOT these days and the advised about corroded front and rear brake pipes to be changed. I was wondering how much fluid would go in if I'd to change it separately front and rear. Couldn't find anything in the handbook about it. Just that it's dot4 nothing else.

Kind Regards

i changed all the brake pipes on my mondeo last year and bought 2 ltrs

just to be on the safe side but ended up with only half ltr left as i made sure there was no air in the pipes so best way is to keep bleeding to make sure

Thanks, that's quite a bit, but maybe the FL needs more as also I think needs a bit pf oil more than others, I guess. will check as I can't do myself here.
Kind Regards

Yes that was more than needed but I like to make sure and the best way is to pump more fluid through

Nothing worse than running out of fluid when ya in the middle of bleeding brakes
