Anyone see the news that the Guberment is forcing the withdrawal of Super Blue because it's blue and could be confused with other vehicle fluids? Our tax dollars at work!

Sounds like standard operating procedure. Someone trying to justify the job he has.

Seriously tho, you're right. Perhaps Super Blue needs to be sold as a controlled substance, requiring an IQ test and a competence exam (one time) just to prevent such problems.

LOL,....brake fluids are the only ones with a color mandate due to moisture absorption.
With the exception of silicone brake fluids, all the rest of them are hygroscopic and start turning brown as they absorb moisture. DOT wants the owner or shop to be able make a visual judgement and the blue dye prevented that.
Its a one-size-fits-all proposition.

I'm embarrassed for my government. Wasn't there something about brake pad material that was outlawed last year too?

What is the big deal? The blue does nothing but to help show the change from old to new the first time you swap from gold to blue. After that it is all kind of light dirty blue. It is easy to see the change between old and new fluid without the blue dye and no blue stain all over everything. ATE Gold is the same stuff so itis not like people are scrabmling to find an alt.
