Boiling point isn’t the only thing that matters. In today’s ABS- and ADAS-equipped vehicles, brake fluid viscosity plays a critical role in how fast systems respond. In Inside the Brands Ep. 153, we compare Pentosin Super DOT 4, DOT 4 LV, and DOT 5.1—and explain why that difference in viscosity matters for performance and safety.

Fuel efficiency and emissions targets have led to the widespread use of smaller, turbocharged engines in today’s vehicles. These engines deliver the performance drivers expect, but as they age, turbocharger repairs and replacements are becoming more common in the aftermarket. However, many turbo jobs overlook critical supporting components like oil and coolant lines, hardware, and gaskets. Neglecting these parts can lead to repeat failures, costly comebacks, and dissatisfied customers. That’s why a complete repair approach is essential. In this episode of Inside the Brands, we feature the REIN TechSelect Turbo Installation Kit for Chevrolet and Buick 1.4L turbocharged engines from model years 2011 to 2021. The kit includes all the components needed for a thorough, reliable repair, including an upgraded oil return line, hoses, gaskets, clamps, and mounting hardware. By providing everything in one box, these kits help improve shop efficiency and reduce the risk of missing a key part. Watch this video to see how the REIN TechSelect Turbo Kits simplify turbo service and help ensure the job is done right the first time.

Choosing the right brake fluid isn’t as simple as checking the boiling point. In today’s vehicles, especially those equipped with ABS, ESC, and ADAS, viscosity has become just as important—if not more so. This episode explains how brake fluid viscosity affects system response times, stopping distance, and overall braking performance. In this episode of Inside the Brands, we take a closer look at Pentosin Super DOT 4, DOT 4 LV, and DOT 5.1 to explain what sets them apart and when each should be used. You’ll also learn why DOT 5.1 isn’t interchangeable with silicone-based DOT 5—and why that distinction matters. If you work on modern brake systems, this is one you’ll want to watch. 🌐 Visit Our Website: For more information about our high-quality automotive replacement parts and fluids, visit our official website at https://crpautomotive.com/ 🔍Search Our Parts: Find detailed parts and application information in our Online Catalog at https://showmetheparts.com/crp/ 📱 Follow Us on Social Media: Stay connected with us on social media for the latest updates: • Facebook: / crpautomotive • Instagram: / crp.automotive • LinkedIn: / crp-automotive- • X: / crpindustries Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to our channel for more automotive tips, product highlights, and industry insights!
