Hey,

I need to change the brake fluid; it's the last fluid in the car that isn't "fresh". I have 2 quarts of super blue (unopened) from my days of owning basketcase Porsches. Any reason I shouldn't use the Superblue in the Volvo 850?

shouldn't be any issue. I have been using it on both my 850 and v70 for a few years.

So long as it is DOT4+ there is no problem. That's what the system call for. Do it.
