Purpose and Specifications

ATE 03.9901-5832.2 is a premium DOT 4 brake fluid in a 1-liter can, designed for reliable braking in cars with ABS, ESP, and modern systems. It delivers quick response and optimal pressure transmission, with a dry boiling point of 260°C to prevent vapor lock during hard braking or high-heat conditions.

This SL DOT 4 fluid protects against corrosion, resists aging, and stays effective even after absorbing moisture, ensuring consistent performance over time. Ideal for everyday drivers and performance vehicles needing dependable stopping power.

When to Use / Replace?

Use ATE DOT 4 when your vehicle manual specifies DOT 4 fluid. Replace every 2 years or 40,000 km, whichever comes first, as brake fluid absorbs water and loses effectiveness, risking brake fade. Its high boiling point handles temps up to 260°C dry and over 170°C wet, perfect for spirited driving or hot climates.

Shelf life is 5 years unopened; store in a cool, dry place. Flush the system completely during changes for best results.
