Modified DOT 3 Brake Fluid

By techarchive on October 1, 2008 9:34 PM | No Comments

Several recent bulletins 08-05-22-002A and PIT3779J specify the use of modified DOT 3 brake fluid as a correction for a brake pedal squeak noise in certain vehicles.

IMPORTANT: Do not use modified DOT 3 brake fluid in the 2-Mode hybrid vehicles. It is not engineered for 2-Mode hybrid use. It can be used in other hybrids, however.

TIP: A note is being added in the Parts Catalog to each service number that modified DOT 3 fluid cannot be used in a 2-Mode hybrid vehicle.
