Mercedes-Benz R63 AMG Fluids and Chemicals

Prestone® MAX DOT 4 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid is our highest grade formula, maximizing performance vs. DOT standard. Prestone MAX is our best brake fluid at protecting against overheating and brake fade. With 75,000 mile fluid life, our longest life fluid has 1.5X more miles between replacement than regular Prestone DOT 3. Prestone MAX has superior performance in severe braking conditions when compared to regular Prestone DOT 4, which means even more piece of mind about the braking system. This synthetic fluid starts with our highest dry boiling point giving our best protection against performance decline due to water absorption. Prestone MAX DOT 4 is safe to use in all DOT 4 braking systems, ABS, disc or drum, and can mix with any DOT 4 fluid. Mixing Prestone MAX with other fluids will lower the performance rating for miles and boil points, for best results replace completely with Prestone MAX DOT 4. It is recommended to only use the DOT fluid specified for your car. Using a different DOT product can affect the boiling point or replacement interval if the wrong fluid is used.

Product Features:

• 75,000 Mile Fluid Life
• Prevent Overheating & Brake Fade with Our Highest Grade Formula. Prevents corrosion of all metals within the braking system.

Long life 100% Synthetic Fluid Super Dot 5.1: Non Silicone – 100% synthetic fluid, polyglycol bases. Color: Yellow Size: .5 liter (1.06 pints) Boiling Point: 272C / 522F Wet Boiling Point: 185C / 365F Viscosity at -40C: (-40F) 820mm²/s Viscosity at 100C: (212F) 2.1mm²/s For all types of hydraulic actuated brake and clutch systems in accordance with DOT 5.1, DOT 4 and DOT 3 manufacturers` recommendations. Long life fluid: The high wet boiling point (185C / 365F), superior to DOT 4 (155C / 311F mini) and DOT 3 (140C /284F mini) conventional fluids enables to use this product longer. Indeed, DOT 3 / DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 brake fluids have the property to absorb humidity contained in the air, which reduces their boiling points and consequently security. The wet boiling point is representative of the fluid after one year of use. Specially designed for anti-locking brake systems (ABS): The viscosity (820 centipoises at -40C / -40F) lower than DOT 4 (up to 1800cp) and DOT 3 (up to 1500cp) brake fluids allows an easier fluid circulation in micro-valves of anti-locking systems. Perfectly neutral with seals used in braking systems.

Product Features:

• Mixable with DOT 3, DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 NON SILICONE BASE products.
• Do not mix with silicone (DOT 5 silicone base) or mineral base fluids (LHM).
• Store brake fluid in its original container, tightly closed to avoid absorption of moisture.
• Aggressive chemical product if contact with hands, paint or varnish.
• If skin contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Drain Interval: 12 to 24 month as per manufacturers` recommendations.
