Title: Shelve Life.
Post by DaveA on 05. May 2011 at 08:36

Hi
Just checked gearbox level which used about 600ml of ATF. Do these fluids have a shelve life, brake fluid as well as ATF, can I keep them until next check or is it best to chuck them and buy new. bought one ltr of ATF. :-/ :-/ :-/

ATF is fine, it's just an oil. Brake fluid is Hygroscopic (it absorbs water) so I wouldn't advise keeping it too long
