The 2007 Ford Focus brake fluid type is DOT 3. DOT 3 brake fluid has a dry boiling point of 401 degrees Fahrenheit, and a wet boiling point of 284 degrees Fahrenheit. Given the fact there is no standard formula for most brake fluids, this is an estimated boiling point, and the exact boiling points for these may vary. Typical DOT 3 fluids easily exceed these values. DOT 3 fluid typically includeS80% glycol ether base which is one of the factors that contribute to water absorption.You can use DOT 4 where DOT 3 is called for, but not the reverse. Using DOT 3 in a DOT 4 brake risks boiling the brake fluid.
