Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid 32 fl oz (1 Quart) OEM-grade hydraulic fluid, 284°F wet boiling

Honda 08798-9108 DOT 3 Brake Fluid is a 32 fl oz OEM-grade hydraulic brake fluid formulated to protect Honda braking systems and maintain reliable stopping performance.

When servicing your vehicle's brake system, choosing a fluid that matches the manufacturer's specifications helps maintain system integrity and performance. This Honda-labeled DOT 3 brake fluid is manufactured to meet federal safety standards and SAE requirements, with a minimum wet boiling point designed to resist vapor lock under normal operating conditions.

What makes this Honda DOT 3 fluid suitable for my brakes?

This formula is produced to align with Honda's recommendations and industry specifications, so it complements the materials and tolerances used in Honda calipers, master cylinders, and ABS components. Using the right spec helps preserve internal seals and maintains predictable pedal feel.

• Meets SAE J1703 performance criteria for DOT 3 fluids.
• Conforms to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 116.
• Engineered compatibility with Honda braking system materials and seals.
• Packaged in a convenient 32 fl oz (1 quart) bottle for service intervals.

How does its boiling point affect braking reliability?

Brake fluid boiling point determines resistance to vapor formation under heat. This Honda DOT 3 has a minimum wet boiling point of 284°F (140°C), which helps reduce the risk of vapor-related pedal fade during everyday driving and typical towing or hill use.

• Minimum wet boiling point: 284°F (140°C) to limit vapor formation.
• Helps maintain consistent pedal feel during repeated braking.
• Suitable for normal passenger vehicle driving conditions.
• Not intended for high-performance track use where higher-spec fluids may be preferred.

Can I mix this DOT 3 fluid with other brake fluids?

DOT 3 fluids are chemically similar and generally compatible with other DOT 3 products, but mixing with DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 changes performance characteristics and is not recommended unless explicitly allowed. Never mix with silicone-based DOT 5 fluids, which are incompatible with glycol-based DOT 3 formulas.

• Compatible with other glycol-based DOT 3 fluids.
• Mixing with DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 alters performance; consult manufacturer guidance.
• Do not mix with silicone (DOT 5) fluids — they are incompatible.
• For full system flushes, use a consistent fluid type throughout the system.

How much fluid do I need and how is this bottle used?

The 32 fl oz (1 quart) bottle is sized to support a complete system bleed on most passenger cars and light trucks, or to top up during routine maintenance. Keep the bottle sealed until use to avoid moisture absorption, which degrades brake fluid performance over time.

• 32 fl oz (1 quart) bottle typically covers a full brake fluid change.
• Store sealed and dry to prevent moisture uptake (hygroscopic).
• Use a clean funnel or bleed kit to avoid contamination.
• Dispose of used fluid according to local hazardous-waste regulations.

Who is this for: This OEM Honda DOT 3 brake fluid is intended for Honda owners, independent technicians, and DIY enthusiasts who want a factory-compatible fluid for routine brake maintenance and safe everyday driving. It’s best for standard passenger vehicles and light-duty applications where DOT 3 performance is appropriate; drivers with heavy-duty, high-temperature, or track needs should consider higher-spec fluids as recommended by their vehicle or motorsport guidelines.
