Question on Brake Fluid! Expiration Date?

[jpy1980]

Hey guys, I changed my brake fluid about a year to 1.5 years ago with Motul RBF 660. It’s about time to change my fluid again and I have a Unused bottle of RBF 660 from that first time I changed it. Is that bottle still viable? It’s still brand new and unopened and kept in a cool dark environment. Thoughts?

What does the sticker say? I believe mine said that once opened, it should be used immediately. Since it's unused and has been stored correctly, I would not worry one bit.

Should have a use by date on the bottle somewhere

Long as it's sealed I wouldn't be worried about it. If it's been opened and is over a year old, i'd toss it due to the hygroscopic nature of brake fluid.
