How to Change Brake Fluid?
1 Answers
The method for changing brake fluid is: 1. Park the vehicle on level ground and turn off the engine, then open the hood and drain the fluid from the reservoir; 2. Use a funnel to fill the reservoir with new brake fluid; 3. Use a jack to lift the vehicle and remove the tires starting from the rear wheels; 4. Remove the rubber dust cap on the brake caliper; 5. Loosen the bleeder screw with a wrench and attach a rubber tube to it, connecting it to a drain bottle; 6. Go inside the vehicle and press the brake pedal while observing the fluid drainage until the fluid level in the reservoir under the hood reaches the lower limit. The hazards of mixing different types of brake fluid include: 1. The performance indicators of the brake fluid may decline or undergo chemical reactions, reducing the braking effectiveness of the vehicle; 2. The fluid's temperature resistance may decrease, affecting driving safety.
