Brake system is the lifeblood of a car

Its quality is directly related to the vehicle braking effect

Among them, brake fluid serves as the “blood” of the brake system

Important role cannot be ignored

Let’s share it with you today

Brake fluid known as “life oil”

* What is brake fluid

Brake fluid is a common name for car brake fluid

It has the property of not being compressed

When the liquid is under pressure

Can quickly and evenly apply pressure

Conducted to various parts of the liquid

Transferring pressure in automotive hydraulic braking systems

It is a practical liquid that stops wheel rotation

* Brake fluid needs to be replaced regularly

Brake oil is prone to deterioration when it is used for too long

Therefore, according to the car maintenance manual,

Brake fluid has been used continuously for more than 3 years

It needs to be replaced in time

If the following two phenomena occur in brake fluid

Indicates that a problem may have occurred

01

Brake fluid appears obviously turbid
When inspecting and maintaining vehicles

Brake fluid was found to be obviously turbid

This indicates that the brake fluid has been mixed with more impurities at this time

May affect the normal braking of the car

02

Brake fluid moisture content is too high
The moisture content of brake fluid is difficult to judge with the naked eye

Car owners use the vehicle for a long time

Go to the special store

Measure the water content of brake fluid with professional equipment

If the moisture content has reached 3-4%

or boiling point below 230℃, it is recommended to replace it immediately

During daily car maintenance and “physical examination”

Keep brake system maintenance at heart

After all, cars not only have to go fast,

It is also necessary to be able to stop at critical moments!
