I boiled my brake fluid (Motul 600) at Streets of Willow in my LR RWD Model 3 on a 104 degree day three weeks ago. It happened at about 40 minutes into the first session during a Time Trial training exercise. We were using a small section of the track with a lot of tight braking zones and only one short straight. I let the car sit for a hour after the session and had no further braking problems for the remaining 3 sessions that day, although none of the other sessions were as brake-intensive. The reservoir still looks full. The fluid was added at the same time I changed from the stock front rotors to the larger MPP rotors, about 6 weeks before the event. This was the first track event with the new rotors and fluid.
I really haven't thought about it since and have had no issues for daily driving over the last three weeks. But, now I'm getting ready for TeslaCorsa this coming weekend at Buttonwillow. Looking for advice on next steps. I'm thinking of just bleeding the brakes to ensure there are no air bubbles and leaving it at that. Or should I do a full flush. I have another bottle of Motul 600, but if I'm doing the full flush, should I try the 660 instead, or event Castrol SRF. Anything other recommendations?
Thanks!
