That is true as you will not imagine that so far for caliper replacement and finally bleeding of one wheel I am already down by 2 liters.
Some fluid was also wasted as while replacing caliper I had opened the brake line and let it hang loose.Then that brake line was loose for some time.
I bought Volvoline (label says exceeds dot 3 and 4) . I have got two more bottles (liter each). I have formed a simple system where I have installed a tire pressure value in the spare fluid reservoir cap. I attach cycle pump to that.Overall it will cost more that costlier fluids.
Rookie mistakes.
Thanks a lot for guiding.
regards
Gopesh
