TCB has also recommended the RBF660 ,
guess I'll give that a try , is 500ml all that's needed
For a full flush and re-fill ?

So Ive had some interesting info from Porterfield directly that their
R4S is actually a pre-bed pad. So supposedly no bedding in is necessary.
Im due to get the car back soon and wondering if its worth doing a procedure anyway ?

The discs are brand new obviously, so will it be any different ?

very vauge and Garage Whiffbitz even more so !!
