How to Change Brake Fluid?

[ChloeDella]

Here are the specific steps for changing brake fluid: 1. First, park the vehicle on a level surface, turn off the engine, and open the hood. Use a syringe to extract the fluid from the reservoir until it's empty. 2. Second, fill the reservoir with new brake fluid. Use a funnel during pouring to avoid spilling onto the engine compartment, as brake fluid is corrosive. 3. Third, use a jack to lift the vehicle, starting with the rear wheels, and remove the tires. 4. Fourth, locate the brake caliper's bleeder screw and remove the rubber dust cap on it. 5. Fifth, use a wrench to loosen the bleeder screw, attach a rubber tube to it, and connect the other end to a drain bottle. 6. Sixth, go inside the car and start pumping the brakes. If two people are working together, one can pump the brakes while the other observes the fluid drainage. Pay attention to the color of the brake fluid in the rubber tube: old fluid is darker, while new fluid is lighter. If the fluid coming out of the tube is the lighter new fluid, the fluid change for that wheel is complete. Stop pumping the brakes, reinstall the tire, and then repeat the process for the remaining three wheels.
