PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE – Brake Fluid Replacement

Is your vehicle’s brake fluid in good condition?

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE BRAKE FLUID

Brake fluid is a highly hygroscopic substance, meaning that it attracts humidity and builds condensation. This leads to the contamination and deterioration of the fluid and shortens the life of the master cylinders (very expensive parts), pneumatic components, brake tubing and nozzles considerably. To best protect your braking system, the used fluid must be completely removed and replaced.

OUR BRAKE FLUID (OIL) REPLACEMENT PROCESS

• We remove the contaminated fluid from the hydraulic system using Valvoline tools.
• We fill the system with Valvoline’s Ultra-Dry, High-Temperature DOT 4 Brake Fluid, known for preventing corrosion.
• We inspect the braking system to find leaks, master cylinder corrosion, pneumatic component wear, harmful varnish deposit accumulation, rusted or damaged drain valves, worn rotors or drums and presence of air in the brake tubing.

RESULTS OF THIS PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SERVICE

• Safer and more efficient braking.
• Extended part life.
• Protection against rust and corrosion.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD THIS MAINTENANCE SERVICE BE CARRIED OUT?

We recommend that brake fluid be replaced when it is contaminated. If it isn’t contaminated, then it should be done every 2 years or every 50,000 km.
