Under what circumstances should brake fluid be replaced?
1 Answers
Brake fluid should be promptly replaced or filtered when it absorbs moisture or contains impurities, otherwise it may lead to insufficient braking pressure and affect braking performance. During normal vehicle operation, if the braking feels inconsistently light or heavy, the brake fluid should be replaced immediately. Before replacement, clean the braking system thoroughly with alcohol. Additional information: When the vehicle exhibits braking deviation, a comprehensive inspection of the braking system is required. If the wheel cylinder rubber cups are found to be excessively swollen, this may indicate potential quality issues with the brake fluid. In such cases, it is advisable to replace with higher quality brake fluid and replace the rubber cups simultaneously. Brake fluid should be replaced every two years.
