While I use it in the Miata, I'd recommend Castrol LMA for a Contour that'll only get bled every 2-3 years. The ATE is more hygroscopic.




I used to use ATE in my wifes car... but the pedal would get noticably squishy after a year. I got sick of bleeding her car and changed to.. um, something else that I can't remember.

I run ATE in my Contour and bleed it every year. When the fluid is getting close to needing changing, I tend to notice it first in the clutch ().
