Aldi selling refurb xbox ones now lol 

To be fair they're probably fine and had hardware replaced

 

[Odium]

Pfffftttttt, refurb... why? New ones aren't that much anyway...

Unless there's something desirable about the older ones that I'm unaware of?

I'm sure it would be given how long the stuff sits in cars for, but also given how much bikes depend on brakes to stop at high speeds and save the rider's life...you might wanna spend $30 on some good stuff?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Stop being a pussy and taste the brake fluid

[NutR33]

If it's still got the foil seal on the top it will be ok. If not, get some new stuff. 

[Odium]

Make sure the DOT rating on the bottle matches what the brake system is expecting (will be printed on the top of the reservoir lid, but if the foil seal hasn't broken then it hasn't been exposed to air and should be fine to use. If it was me though, I'd buy a fresh bottle, especially considering the price.

Also, have you considered tasting it to verified its quality?

[Birds]

The DOT rating on the bottle can exceed that of the reservoir specification too

[Odium]

As long as the type is the same...

DOT 3, 4 and 5.1 are increasing quality/grade of glycol-based fluid, they are backwards compatible, but not forwards compatible. eg you can use 3, 4 and 5.1 in a system designed for 3, but not 3 in a system designed for a minimum of 4.

DOT 5 is a silicone base fluid, and should not be mixed with anything else if you plan on protecting the squishy parts of your body.

[UNR33L]

Yer it's motul dot 5.1 cap says dot 4 and completely sealed, she'll be right. 
Won it at sau dyno day actually lel

Alvin lacked style and substance, which is why he had trouble with strange housemates

Dot 5 is not compatible with 5.1
