So I had two bottles in my car that looked the same, one was power steering fluid and the other dot 3 brake fluid.
So in a rush I ended up putting the power steering fluid in the smaller of the two brake fluid res. ( I dont know whats the difference, maybe thats the rear brakes ).
So I started the car and drove down the road, realising as I looked at the seat next to me with the bottles on it, that I had made a massive mistake.
I stopped the car straight away, followed the line out of the brake res and found a plug to drain it, I refilled with brake fluid ( right one this time ) and flush it twice to that put just underneath and behind the engine.
what do I need to do to drain past this point, I dont want to start the car again untill its completely flushed and drained out.
Or is it best to get a mobile mechanic in to flush it.
