Or should I just buy a bottle of it and get my mechanic to tick it as done. 2nd year service brake fluid change - n1ibor - 24:th-Jun-2014 i don't think it's just pouring in a new bottle. and 2 years seems rather fast? 2nd year service brake fluid change - JohnL - 24:th-Jun-2014 Can't remember if it was done on my Elite on it's second service.
