Default Just did brake fluid with Valvoline SynPower Dot 3/4

I compared what are written on the Valvoline bottle and Audi specifications in Bentley.

============================================
Bentley:

Dot 4 Super, or Dot 4+
Minimum wet boiling point ..... 329F(165C)
Dry boiling point (exceeds).... 500F(260C)

Absolutely no Dot 5.

Dot 3 and standard Dot 4 do not meet the
abavespecification.

Dot 3: Wet=284F, Dry=401F
Dot 4: Wet=311F, Dry=446F
============================================
Valvoline SynPower Dot 3/4:
Wet boiliong point ............ Not seen
Dry boiling point ............. 500F
============================================

It's good stuff, lots of people here run it for non-track use.

I use synpower too. It's cheap and works just fine.
