Jim, again thanks for the info. I knew it was hyGroscopic and not hyDroscopic but 'hyDro' always made more sense since it's water related. Anyway...

The mechanic actually said that there isn't much difference between the two fluids (price was the same too). Looks like he was wrong, as they seem to have the same boiling points. Good to know. On hygroscopy... Once the water gets into the system, seems like a more hygroscopic fluid is actually better since it will dillute the water into itself better, spread it around, and not allow it to concentrate around the calipers. Is hygroscopic ability measurable, quantifiable? Are Blue and Gold equal here, too?

Finally, if the Blue and Gold are the same across all dimensions (except color?!) why produce/sell both or only two? Why not Pink?
Z.
