What is the method for changing brake fluid in the Axela?
1 Answers
To extract the brake fluid from the Axela, a specialized extraction container is required, and it is recommended to avoid using the traditional pedal-pumping method. Tutorial for replacing brake fluid in the Axela: First, extract the old brake fluid from the reservoir in the engine compartment. The extraction process should last for more than ten seconds. Then, use the extraction container to remove the fluid and air from the brake lines. Connect the rubber hose of the extraction container to the bleeder valve of the master cylinder. Gradually extract the brake fluid while having a partner slowly pour new brake fluid into the reservoir. Functions of brake fluid: Effectively lubricates the moving parts of the braking system, extending the lifespan of brake calipers and seals. Provides anti-corrosion and anti-rust protection, ensuring no damage to metal and non-metal materials in the braking system. Adapts to various environmental conditions, ensuring reliable transmission of braking force under high temperature, extreme cold, high speed, and humid conditions. Also serves to transfer energy and dissipate heat.
