Book Your Brake Fluid Replacement Today

Your brakes are the most critical safety feature of your vehicle. It enables your car to slow down and stop in seconds to prevent any accidents.

To keep your brakes in good working condition, it needs the right amount of brake fluid. It increases the hydraulic pressure on the brake pedal when you press down on it with your foot.

Without brake fluid, your brakes will be harder to step on, in turn making it harder to stop or slow down. Replacing your brake fluid then is vital when maintaining your car.

1. Color change
Brand new brake fluid is clear and colourless. However, the more you use it, the more it turns light brown and when it's time for a replacement, darker and opaque. You can check the colour by taking a peek inside the brake fluid reservoir, located at the rear of the engine, usually directly above or in front of the brake pedal.

2. Bouncy brake pedal
Is your brake pedal bouncy or soft when you step on it? Do you need to step the pedal before your vehicle stops? If yes, you need to replace your brake fluid. Since you lack brake fluid, air will enter your brake line, resulting in softer braking.

3. Ineffective and inconsistent braking performance
If your car takes longer to slow down or stop, you need to replace your brake fluid.

4. Strange noises when braking
If you hear weird noises during braking, it could be due to a lack of brake fluid or another problem with the braking system. Get them checked immediately.

5. Burning smell
Burning odours following strong braking could indicate that your brake fluid has burned out. If you keep driving despite the burning smell, expect to cause an accident because your brakes will undoubtedly fail.
