DOT 3 brake fluid is generally compatible with DOT 2 fluid, as both are glycol-based and share similar chemical properties. However, it is not recommended to mix different types of brake fluids, as doing so can lead to reduced performance or potential damage to the braking system. It's best to follow the manufacturer's specifications for the recommended brake fluid type. Always ensure that the system is properly bled and maintained when switching fluids.
DOT 3 and DOT 4 brake fluids are not compatible with one another. You should only use the fluid that your car manufacturer suggests.
DOT 3 Brake fluid is recommended. DOT 4 will also work, so will DOT 5.1, DOT 5 is not compatible though.
A 2000 Jeep Wrangler would use Dot 3 brake fluid. Dot 4 is also acceptable. Just do not use Dot 5, it is not compatible.
dot 3
It is a castor oil based brake fluid. Do not mix with systems requiring Dot 3 or Dot 4 which are glycol based.
Yes. DOT 4 has a higher boiling point than DOT 3, and it is less hygroscopic (less affinity for moisture). Beware of DOT 5, however, because it is not compatible with other brake fluids.
DOT 3 is a type of brake fluid

DOT 3 or DOT 4, you can use either, or both, they are fully compatible. However DO NOT mix DOT3/4 with DOT 5, they ARE NOT compatible. If mixed it will form a gel/slime type mixture and completely foul your system. Hope this helps!

DOT 3 brake fluid
GM Delco Supreme II brake fluid is recommended for all vehicles that require DOT 3 brake fluid. It contains enhanced corrosion inhibitors to prevent premature wear, and retains its boiling point properties longer than conventional DOT 3 brake fluids. It is also compatible with disc and drum brake systems.
