Textar 95006600 DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid - Premium Protection for Your Brakes

Purpose and Specifications

Textar 95006600 is a top-quality DOT 5.1 brake fluid in a convenient 1-liter bottle, designed to deliver reliable braking performance under extreme conditions. This glycol-based fluid resists boiling even after absorbing moisture, staying effective up to 260°C dry for fresh fluid and 180°C wet when it has taken in typical road moisture. It flows smoothly for quick brake response and meets strict standards like FMVSS 116 DOT 5.1 and ISO 4925 Class 5.1.

Approved for major brands including Ford (M6C57A, M6C65-A1/A3, M6C9103A), GM (16072, GMW 3356), Mazda (MN 120 C), Mercedes-Benz (MB 331), Nissan (M5055 NR3/NR4), Peugeot (S 71 2114), Renault (41.02.001), Suzuki (59100-510XD), Toyota (TSK 2602 G), and VW/Audi (TL 766 X/Y), it ensures compatibility and safety for your vehicle.

When to Use / Replace?

Use Textar DOT 5.1 for vehicles requiring high-performance brake fluid that handles repeated hard stops without fading - ideal for spirited driving or heavy loads. Replace every 2 years or 40,000-60,000 km, whichever comes first, as brake fluid absorbs water over time, dropping its boiling point and risking brake failure. Shelf life unopened is typically 3-5 years in a cool, dry place. Check your owner's manual for exact intervals.

• Perfect for modern ABS and ESP systems needing low-viscosity fluid for fast response.
• Prevents vapor lock during high-heat braking, like mountain descents or track days.
• 1L bottle covers most full flushes (0.5-1L per system).

FAQ

Q: Can I mix this with DOT 4 fluid?
A: Yes, DOT 5.1 is fully compatible with DOT 3/4 for top-offs, but always do a full flush for best results.

Q: How do I know when to change my brake fluid?
A: Test boiling point at a shop or change every 2 years - dark color or spongy pedal means replace now.

Q: Is DOT 5.1 better than DOT 4?
A: Yes for high-heat needs; it boils higher when wet and flows better in cold weather for quicker stops.
