    Brake fluid should be changed annually.
    AFAIK either ATE, Castrol GTX or Valvoline DOT 4 "synthetic" are all about the same and fine.

    Actually the best technique is to alternate ATE Super Blue with non-colored fluid.
    That way you can clearly see when last year's fluid is out.

    When you change it annually it is sometimes difficult to tell when the new fluid is coming thru because the old stuff is still clear and colorless.
