- I just had my brake fluid replaced. The garage put in
- DOT-4 brake fluid, but when I got home, the lid on my
- fluid reservoir said "Dot-3" only.
-
- What's the difference between 3 and 4? I was told that
- 4 mainly had higher max operating temps. Anything
- else? Is it OK for my car? I've got an '89 Probe GT
- by the way. Thanks for any info.
