Just remember it goes in sequence...
Right Rear
Left Rear
Right Front
Left Front.

Other than that, nothing to it.

Last I knew, all brake fluid is synthetic.

Doesn't matter really what the brand is, unless you drive a Rolls Royce.

I like to use a vacuum pump, withe a fluid air seperater (comes with most pumps)....makes it a one man job and practically no mess at all...Use Dot 3 fluid, that is what is in there.
