Regular brake fluid won't cut it either, Dot 4 is needed. As you see, heat is the enemy from having issues on your long trip.

wow, I always complain about her being a moody bitch. I'm glad the Z didn't give up on me during the road trip. I guess I'll be picking up some Motul 600 and get on it asap. 1 bottle for 500ml should be enough right?

That is why before a long trip its advisable to have the fluids checked or changed.

You lucky your Z was good enough not to fail you while on the road trip.

That sounds like it. I failed to check my fluids as I was more worried about getting new tires before the trip. This car must really love me to not have given up on me after a 2800 mile round trip.

That's nasty, I'll go look at my fluid right now and post a picture
