Premium Brake Fluid for Modern Vehicles

Purpose and Specifications

Bosch 1 987 479 215 is a high-performance brake fluid designed for modern vehicles with advanced braking systems. This premium-grade fluid works in DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1 compatible systems, making it a universal solution for most cars built since 1990.

Key Performance Benefits:

• Superior Heat Protection: Dry boiling point of 270°C prevents brake fade during hard braking or towing. Wet boiling point of 180°C maintains safety even in humid conditions.
• Extended Service Life: Lasts up to 3 years between replacements—50% longer than standard DOT 4 fluids (which require replacement every 2 years).
• System Protection: Reduces corrosion in brake lines and components. Special lubricants protect ABS and ESP systems from wear and noise.
• Cold Weather Performance: Low viscosity at -40°C ensures smooth brake response in freezing conditions.
• Universal Compatibility: Can replace virtually all previous glycol-based brake fluids without system flushing required.

When to Use / Replace?

Replace this brake fluid every 3 years or when your vehicle's service schedule recommends it. Signs of needed replacement include a soft or spongy brake pedal, reduced braking responsiveness, or visible fluid discoloration. This fluid is ideal for daily driving, performance vehicles, turbocharged engines, and cars equipped with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

Storage and Shelf Life: Keep the sealed canister in a cool, dry place. Unopened, this fluid maintains quality for at least 5 years. Once opened, use within 12 months to prevent moisture absorption.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I mix this fluid with my current brake fluid?
A: Yes. Bosch ENV6 can be mixed with DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1 fluids. However, for best results, perform a complete system flush and refill.

Q: Is this fluid safe for vehicles with ABS?
A: Absolutely. This fluid is specifically formulated to protect ABS and ESP systems with special lubricants that prevent wear and noise.

Q: How do I know when my brake fluid needs replacing?
A: Replace every 3 years as standard maintenance. If your brake pedal feels soft, spongy, or less responsive before 3 years, have the fluid checked immediately—it may have absorbed moisture.
