<img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/13362/silver_a8.jpg"> The brakes have been a little mushy on the newly acquired A8, so I figured, let's bleed the brake and see if it helps. It helped, the brakes are much better now, but Man I tell you, the fluid that came out was pretty cloudy to say the least. Time to change the brake fluid.

I think I will use ATE Gold Typ 200, or does anyone have a better suggestion?
Where is a good place to buy this fluid? Thank you

when you've purged the old fluid by the distinct color shift.

Off to the store to get some Brake fluid.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=43998&amp;item =4521484697&amp;rd=1&amp;ssPageName=WDVW">Motive Pressure Bleeder, Fast shipping!</a></li></ul>

All done, I ended up doing both of them, that bleeder worked like a charm.

the thing I figured out is that the fluid comes out pretty slowly. I was expecting it to come gushing out but that's not the case. Need to allow maybe a couple of minutes flush time per wheel. It doesn't develop the pressure that someone pumping the brake does so the first time I thought I was doing it wrong.

I thought the same thing at first.
