How many kilometers should a Nissan go before changing brake fluid?
1 Answers
It is recommended to replace the brake fluid every two years or 40,000 kilometers. What is brake fluid: Brake fluid is the liquid medium that transmits braking pressure in a hydraulic braking system, used in vehicles equipped with hydraulic braking systems. Brake fluid, also known as braking oil or force oil, is an indispensable part of the braking system. In the braking system, it serves as a force transmission medium. Since liquids cannot be compressed, the pressure output from the master cylinder is directly transmitted to the wheel cylinders through the brake fluid. Types of brake fluid: Castor oil-alcohol type, synthetic type: Made by blending ethers, alcohols, esters, etc., with additives for lubrication, oxidation resistance, rust prevention, and rubber swelling resistance. Mineral oil type: Made by refining light diesel fractions with thickeners and other additives.
