Q 1. What is BG DOT 4 Brake Fluid?

A. A high-performance glycol-ether DOT 4 brake fluid that meets or exceeds FMVSS 116 DOT 3 and DOT 4 specifications. Minimum 230°C dry boiling point — exceeds DOT 4 minimum requirement.

Q 2. When should DOT 4 brake fluid be used?

A. Where the vehicle manufacturer specifies DOT 4 — the most common UK passenger-car specification. Check vehicle handbook to confirm before fluid change.

Q 3. Is DOT 4 compatible with DOT 3 and DOT 5.1?

A. Yes. All three are glycol-ether based and fully cross-compatible. WARNING: DOT 5 (silicone-based) is a different chemistry and is NOT compatible — do not confuse DOT 5 with DOT 5.1.

Q 4. How often should brake fluid be changed?

A. Most manufacturers specify brake fluid replacement every 2 years regardless of mileage. Brake fluid is hygroscopic — it absorbs water, which lowers boiling point and causes corrosion in the brake system.

Q 5. Will BG DOT 4 work in ABS, ESP and traction control systems?

A. Yes. BG DOT 4 is fully compatible with modern brake systems including ABS, ESP, traction control and electronic brake assistance.

Q 6. Is the 946ml size enough for a brake fluid change?

A. For most passenger-car brake systems, 946ml is sufficient for a full brake fluid flush. For larger commercial vehicles or motorcycles, plan for additional fluid.

Q 7. Should I upgrade to DOT 5.1 if my car specifies DOT 4?

A. DOT 5.1 offers higher boiling point — useful for towing, performance driving, or sustained heavy braking. For normal road use, DOT 4 fully meets requirements. Both are interchangeable in DOT 4 systems.

Q 8. Can I ask questions about this product before ordering?

A. Yes — WhatsApp us on 07754 288583 with any questions about specifications, suitability, or compatibility.
