Brake Fluid Change

[tbag]

Hi all,After fitting new front discs and pads before the M.O.T. i now feel the brakes need bleeding.I have in my shed a part bottle of castrol response which is four years old and a new bottle of carlube fluid, both are synthetic and appear to be the same spec.Has anyone used carlube before and will it be ok for my galaxy? i do think the castrol is a little old now.also what is the best procedure for changing the brake fluid please.your suggestions would be greatly appriciated.Thanks t bag

I wouldn't worry about age, but once it's opened it starts to absorb moisture and deteriorates. It may be okay, but I would prefer using an unopened bottle. The Carlube stuff should be fine if it's the correct specification.
