can our car use synthetic brake fluid?
i am asking because i put it in my bakes and it feels really light. i bleed the system and all.. but the first press feels really light, and the brake pedal goes right to the floor with lil resistance. |

All brake fluid is synthetic. 'Synthetic' has become a marketing term, and it really doesn't have much meaning anymore. Just make sure you are not using DOT 5 silicone brake fluid. Like the other posts suggest, it sounds like air got into the brake lines when you exchanged the fluid.
