    Pete,

    A 1 liter container should be more than enough to bleed the brakes on the Mondi. It was on mine. Be sure to get as much of the old fluid as you can out of the reservoir before putting the new fluid in, and start bleeding from the right rear. I found it worked best using the "two person" system -- one pumping the brake pedal, one opening/closing the bleeder valve. Just remember to keep the reservoir topped up.

    If you buy an extra container, do not open it unless you are going to be using it right away. You don't want it absorbing any moisture from the air.

    Hi Steve, Thanks for the info, I thought I might have needed a lot as its a longish car, I got the Castrol srf as it has a high boiling point and I have had brake fade several times in the past, its around £40 a litre here in the Uk so I didn't want to buy an extra litre if I didn't need it, I will definitely get two to do the job, Regards Pete
