Coolant and Brake Fluid

[vitagen]

Hey everyone, i need to get a coolant and brake fluid flush but im going somewhere else to do it.

Im gonna purchase the long life coolant from toyota but how much do i need?

Also with brake fluid is it shared with the clutch? cos my friends civic's clutch and brake fluid are the same, and also how much will i need?

i've already bought some castrol super response dot 4 fluid, but may not be enough!

cheers!

sorry forgot to add i have a 2003 sportivo @ 32000 km, the coolant is between low and full so i think its time to change coolant anyhow! thanks

You need 8 litres (2x4litre bottles)

Yep it is shared : 1 reservoir, 2 master cylinders.

You'll need 1 litre of Brake Fluid.

Coolant and Brake Fluid needs changing every 2 years regardless of kilometres according to the Toyota service manual.
