The symptoms indicating brake fluid needs replacement are: 1. The brake fluid has absorbed moisture or contains impurities; 2. When the vehicle exhibits inconsistent braking performance during normal driving, the brake fluid should be promptly replaced; 3. The wheel cylinder rubber cup is excessively swollen; 4. Brake fluid should be replaced every two years. The method for replacing brake fluid is: 1. Park the vehicle on level ground and turn off the engine, open the engine compartment 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, starting with removing the rear wheels; 4. Remove the rubber dust cap on the brake caliper; 5. Use a wrench to loosen the bleeder screw and attach a rubber tube to it, connecting it to a drain bottle; 6. Have someone press the brake pedal inside the vehicle while observing the fluid drainage until the fluid level in the engine compartment reservoir reaches the lower limit.
