brake fluid
i've just found out that UK don't make DOT 3 brake oil which is the standard spec for s15. My fluids are running low at the moment and i just want to top it up to use for a few weeks. Is it possible to mix abit of DOT 4 in there, which was told but halfords but the lid said something else. thanks- cloudandy
