Hi guys,

I recently did a brake fluid change on my sister's BMW. The fluid was about 2 years old. I really had a hard time telling when the old fluid had been pushed out because the color didn't drastically change. The old fluid was slightly yellow, and the new is almost clear. I couldn't tell when it changed from yellow to clear. I did it four times on four wheels and still wasn't 100% sure that all the old fluid had been replaced. I think blue brake fluid is not allowed on the market anymore, so anyone has any tips for me? I'm about to do it on my Boxster.
