I'm a fan of the ATE Super Blue, not only due to its higher boiling temp., but also for the fact that it's really easy to tell (on the first fluid swap anyway!) when you've got all of the old fluid out.

They also make the same fluid in a more normal amber color, so you can get the color change benefit everytime.

Old thread...

I flushed my system and put in DOT4 (as most 2010+ cars use this). However, I noticed after I was done that Toyota calls for DOT3. Will I have any problems?

There is one great big can of brake fkuid and all the manufacturers fill their little cans from it. So its all the same.

Same for oil!

But DOT 4 is compatable with DOT 3 it just has a higher boiling point.
