    How about the Motul 600 in a standard car for pretty much standard driving getting up to high speeds periodically?

    Can you please explain / show how to reset? Is it more simple than disconnecting power?

    I use Motul 660 and never had a problem with boiled fluid. Part of this depends on the track. The ones near me don’t have super long straights. SRF is great, but more expensive.

    But the failures described in this thread don’t seem likely based on fluid.

    Is the Motul 600 ok to use on a standard car for pretty much standard driving reaching high speeds periodically or is it to hard on the parts? I'm trying to figure out what fluid I want to go with when I flush my system. Thanks.

    Yes, I’ve used that, too, with no issues. I do change fluid at least once a year, though, to help avoid problems with moisture. Both 600 and 660 have good dry and wet boiling point temperatures.

    Holy ****! Great way to drift the car a little sideways to hit the tires sideways rather than head on.
