Overfilled brake fluid can have certain impacts. While it does not pose any harm to braking performance, the excess brake fluid may overflow from the reservoir, dirtying the engine compartment and potentially affecting some components, given that brake fluid is highly corrosive. More details are as follows: 1. Therefore, when brake fluid is overfilled, the excess should be promptly extracted. 2. If a shortage of brake fluid is detected, it is essential to replenish the reservoir with the correct specification of brake fluid as soon as possible, since brake fluid directly affects the entire braking system. 3. Under normal circumstances, brake fluid should not fall below the minimum level. Although brake fluid is consumed during driving, the consumption rate is minimal.

Which Button is for Defogging?

There are two defogging buttons in a car. One is for the front windshield defogging, marked with a fan-shaped symbol containing three upward wavy lines. The other is for the rear windshield defogging, marked with a rectangular symbol containing three upward wavy lines. Here are the related details: 1. Defogging: The principle of fog formation on car windows is due to the temperature difference between the 'cold outside and warm inside.' The temperature inside the car is higher than outside, leading to fog formation. Turning on the A/C switch activates the cooling state, which has the advantage of quickly removing fog but is not suitable for winter. Another method is using the heating system for defogging. This method is also effective, but it takes a few minutes to work. 2. Benefits: The car defogging button can reduce moisture, fog, and frost on the front and rear windshields and the exterior rearview mirrors, improving the driver's visibility and making driving safer.
