DOT4 Brake Fluid (Pale Yellow to Nearly Colorless, 1L) |
1060099-00-A
If you’re servicing the brake system of your vehicle—especially
Tesla models or other modern cars requiring high-performance brake
fluid—this 1L DOT4 brake fluid (matching part 1060099-00-A) is the
reliable choice to maintain safe, responsive braking. With a pale
yellow to nearly colorless appearance (true to OEM standards), it’s
easy to monitor fluid clarity (a key indicator of contamination)
while delivering the hydraulic performance critical for brake
systems.
As a DOT4-rated brake fluid, it meets global safety standards,
boasting a high dry boiling point (≥230°C) and wet boiling point
(≥155°C)—far exceeding the demands of daily driving. This
resistance to high temperatures prevents brake fluid vaporization
(a leading cause of “spongy” pedals or brake fade) during intense
use, such as downhill braking or heavy traffic. Unlike low-grade
fluids that absorb moisture quickly, it has low hygroscopicity,
slowing moisture buildup (which degrades brake performance over
time) and extending the fluid’s service life.
The 1L volume is ideal for full brake fluid flushes (standard for
most passenger vehicles) or top-ups. Its pale yellow to nearly
colorless hue makes it easy to spot leaks in the brake lines and
ensures compatibility with OEM fluid in mixed-topup scenarios (no
discoloration issues). It’s compatible with all DOT3/DOT4-approved
brake systems, including Tesla’s electric vehicle brake setups, as
well as traditional gasoline-powered cars—offering versatility for
multi-vehicle garages.
When to use: Replace every 2 years (or 40,000km, per most vehicle
manuals) to prevent moisture-related degradation; use for brake
system repairs (e.g., caliper replacement) to ensure fresh fluid in
the lines; top up if fluid levels drop below the “MIN” mark (never
mix with non-DOT4 fluids).
Note: Do not use in DOT5 (silicone-based) brake systems. Store in a
sealed container away from moisture to maintain performance. This
fluid’s OEM-matching specs ensure it meets the strict hydraulic
requirements of modern brake systems, keeping your vehicle’s
braking responsive and safe.
