Recently, we have received feedback from many car owners sayingBrake FluidIs it really unnecessary to change?Brake fluid isBrake fluid, Normally, the brake fluid should be replaced regularly, but if the 4s shop often asks you to replace it, it will be suspected of fooling you.

Brake fluid replacement time

After consulting the user manuals of some models, the maintenance tips given by the manufacturers are generally replaced every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers. Then, check the fluid level of the brake fluid pot regularly, and keep the fluid level between the MAX and MIN marking lines. When the fluid level is low, you can replenish the brake fluid.

Comparing the oil replacement time, the oil is generally replaced every 6 months or 10,000 kilometers, and the replacement cycle of brake oil is relatively long. However, this does not mean that the brake fluid is not important. The brake fluid is used in the hydraulic brake system of automobiles. In order to ensure its function, the brake fluid needs to be replaced regularly. Otherwise, if it is not replaced for a long time, it will bring hidden dangers to the driving. Problems such as insufficient brake pressure and corrosion of the brake system have occurred.

Some car owners may think that regular replacement of brake fluid is too wasteful. Some car owners even buy a pen that can detect the water content of brake fluid online. If the test result shows that the condition of the brake fluid is okay, then there is no need to replace it.

This test method is reasonable, but we need to remind everyone that there are almost hundreds of brake fluid water content detection pens sold on the Internet. In order to ensure the accuracy of the test results, it is best to do a small experiment before use. For example, pour some brake fluid into a small cup and look at the test results. Then add a few drops of water to the cup and test the results. If the result of the test pen indicates that the moisture content is on the market, it means that the test pen is not a problem.

Finally, I would like to give you a suggestion. If the vehicle is not driven very often in 2 years, the replacement time of brake fluid can be extended appropriately. If the brakes are used frequently, the driving environment is more mountainous roads and downhill sections, or the climatic environment is very humid, then the replacement time of the brake fluid should be shortened and replaced every 1 year or 20,000 kilometers.
