What the fuck… Its blue for a very good reason. When flushing you can clearly tell when you no longer have old fluid even if clean

There’s probably some dusty old law out there that requires certain fluids to be certain colors so people know what’s leaking. You know wouldn’t wanna be leaking blue brake fluid and have someone assume its pisser spray :rofl

This is the reason I switched to Motul. Don’t wanna be mixed in with none of those street ricers running illegal parts/fluids.

That’s one of the main pressing concerns in this country. Inappropriately colored automotive fluids. Its why our taxes are so high . Good thing they are spending the time to shut that garbage down.

Stupid fluid anyway. Off the shelf synthetic Valvoline is just as good. SB stains the fuck out of your reservoir so that when you put in good fluid like Motoul or Castrol the shit still looks smurf blue.

Lol at slacking, retarded govt. You know that shit had to be tested to be approved in the first place here. Maybe the tech was fucking colorblind or something :lol
