Default all brake fluid is hyrGroscopic

some are just more so than others.

If you're just tootling around town in your S4, you'll manage just fine with stock (DOT4?) fluid. You don't need the added benefit of higher boiling points of Motul (with the downside of having to bleed more frequently).

Default :-)

Convinced that I was right...I started searching for hydroscopic...looks like I stepped in that one. Virtually the only place I find reference to that term is online car-related resources. :-P Well damnit, it SHOULD be a word! :-P
