How much brake fluid?

How much brake fluid is needed to do a full system swap and bleed the lines? I could not find in the manual. Also, if I put Motul 600 or Castrol SRF, can I leave the fluid in for daily driving after a track day? Thanks!!

yes it will not effect the daily drive ability of the car. it will just perform better on the rack and not overheat and boil.

I purchased 3 bottles of the Motul 600 to make sure I flushed it out completely the first time and it took all 3. I probably could have got away with less but wanted to be completly sure I got all of the OEM stuff out.

Thanks! This is the first time to do a swap/flush on this car.

The system's capacity is just under one Liter. You'll need a bit more to fully flush it all. I'd say three is a little overkill, bordering on wasting money...but it sure will flush all the old stuff out.
