Ever since my clutch was done the brakes have felt pants. Its not the discs/pads and there is plenty of fluid so therefore it either needs bleeding or the dealer used fairy liquid. So I'm going to get the fluid changed/brakes bled. Anyone recommend a good 4.0 or 5.1 I can get reasonably quickly and for sensible money?

Thanks.

I used to use Castrol Response Super Dot 4 in my Leon Cupra R which is available in Halfords. The Leon had 4 pot Brembos on the front and on circuit I gave it a hell of a lot of stick (the red Brembo callipers ended up pretty much purple due to the heat!) and never had a problem with the brakes.
