[DML] Recent Posts on Clutch and Brake Problems

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This always happens to the Newbies. If the brake (and clutch fluid on
5-speeds) is not changed every 2 years or if it looks like dark
varnish with little bits floating in it, you WILL be rebuilding these
systems because the brake fluid is going to eat the systems up from
the inside out. English cars seem to be especially sensitive to old
brake fluid. They are also particular about the type. Castrol GTLMA
DOT 4 is the only one recomended. As soon as you buy an old, used car
the owner should replace ALL of the fluids unless he KNOWS it has been
done recently and with the correct ones!
