Brake fluid ATE or MOTUL

I use the ATE 200 in my NB and will continue to for the foreseeable future it's been great stuff

I use Motul 600 and it's been great so far.

For our light weight cars, ATE Typ 200 is good for basically all applications, up until you’re getting into high horsepower builds (motor swaps, high boost forced induction).

ATE Original TYP 200 is the GOAT. Look at the wet pointing point: 388F for ATE. 401F for Motul. An extra 13F isn't worth the price difference.

ATE Typ 200 is more than enough for autocross & daily and lasts longer between recommended full flush.

It’s dirt cheap and holds up well. I’ve used it for track duty for years with regular changes and no issues.

This weekend one of my cars got brakes (all four corners and I mic'd the rotors), and a brake fluid flush. FCP Euro supplied all the parts. ATE (original equipment supplier for Mercedes Benz) rear pads- $20, front pads- $60, ATE fluid $15.

As a mk7.5 owner, I’ve added ferodo ds2500 pads, slotted rotors, motul rbf 600 fluid and rs3 brake ducts to combat longer track sessions.

After a few sessions, I started to go hard on the brakes and turn sharper..etc. During that session, I experienced fluid fade. The paddle went deep and soft but the car still stopped so I was able to conclude that it was fluid fade rather than pad fade.

I caved at the end of November and I bought 2 liters of ATE SL.6 from Amazon (with 2026 \"expiration date\" printed on the bottle) and used one full liter again on my wife's car on December 4th WITH no difference in noise as it sadly still there.
