13-year-old old oil truck changes brake fluid and conducts annual inspection

Because the insurance is about to expire, there is another time when I bought insurance for maintenance last year. I asked the 4S maintenance supervisor, but I couldn’t buy other services, nor could I get oil and filter, etc. It expired after June 19. So I made an appointment on Saturday afternoon to go to 4S for A maintenance, because the maintenance provided by Ping An Insurance can be done at Touhu, and only Zhongsheng can be used for 4S. It just happens that I have been doing it at Zhongsheng. I am familiar with the maintenance supervisor and can often do it quickly. Zhongsheng’s business is so good that there is a long queue every time.
At 1 p.m. on June 5, I arrived at 4S as scheduled. The front desk registered, and the maintenance supervisor also came. I told him that I would only replace the oil filter and try to hurry up. He personally drove my car to the next door repair workshop. An hour later, I went to the workshop to check it. The maintenance staff said that the brake fluid was not working. I asked how much water content should exceed to replace the brake fluid. He said that it usually exceeds 2%. I said how much would it cost? When I answered more than 400, I said it was not expensive, so I went to the maintenance consultant in front of me to explain it. By the way, I searched for the water content of the brake oil. Du Niang said that if it exceeded 2.5%, it should be replaced. I don’t remember whether the brake oil has been replaced. Anyway, it has not been replaced for a long time. The face price is 622, and the discount is 448. It is not expensive, so the service items are added.
Moreover, because one of my left L-shaped daytime running lights was loose, and one of the mounting feet was broken before, it was fixed with a large gasket. It probably slipped. I asked the maintenance boy to help remove the wheel hub guard and put it in place again. It took a lot of effort. So let’s give him some projects. I should replace it anyway. After all, this old car will have to be driven all the time.

The front cabin is my original appearance. The GLC next door is spraying instrument wax. His car is very dirty. Maybe he overpaid the service fee? Mine has never been sprayed on me with instrument wax, and I don’t care. Mine is very clean.

After adding a liter of brake fluid, there is still a lot of brake fluid and needs to be sucked out.

Machines that pump old oil can also use it to add new brake fluid after pumping it out

It should be original brake fluid

The water content of the old brake fluid is more than 3.5%, and it really should be replaced
