The model number of the original brake fluid for the Corolla is DOT3. Brake fluid replacement: Loosen the two oil pipes on the master pump in the engine compartment, drain the brake fluid, and tighten the oil pipes. First, fill the brake fluid completely, then lift the car. Use a method where one person presses the brake pedal inside the car while another person loosens the bleeder screw of the slave cylinder outside the car. Follow the principle of working from far to near, sequentially draining excess fluid from the left rear, right rear, left front, and left rear slave cylinders, then tighten the bleeder screws. Continue to top up the fluid in the reservoir, repeat the above process two to three times to thoroughly replace the brake fluid. Finally, ensure the fluid level is between the upper and lower marks on the reservoir. Corolla Hybrid battery lifespan: The Corolla Hybrid uses a nickel-metal hydride battery, which is known for its long lifespan. Under normal use, it can last up to about 10 years. The battery is always in a state of shallow charging and discharging, ensuring it lasts as long as the vehicle. Note that continuously using the starter when starting the car can cause the battery to be damaged due to excessive discharge. The correct method is to keep each starting attempt under 5 seconds, with intervals of at least 15 seconds between attempts.
