Valvoline Brake Fluid DOT 3&4

I am about to replace my Xfire with new brakes. My nearest Advance Auto Parts has Valvoline DOT 3 and 4 Synthetic Brake Fluid (32 oz.) Are these good to use on our cars?

Thanks again!

Dot 4 only, check other specs.

Change it out with ATE Super Blu. It's not expensive, it's easy to get, and it's blue... one of my favorite colors. Plus it's one of the best brake fluids out there.

Rob (Needswings) also sells Motul, which is a better brake fluid. You'll need a little under half a quart, but It's best to have too much than not enough.
