I was told my brake fluid is green...why??

Posted on 8/21/2020


Your brake fluid is a vital important component of your brake system. Your brake fluid flows through your calipers, wheel cylinders, master cylinder and other components. The green color is algae in your brake fluid. That means that your brake fluid is contaminated and has a high moisture content. This is very hard on your brake components and in an emergency situation it can cause your brakes to not work properly. Your brake fluid should be serviced at least once a year depending on the climate of your area. 



Give us a call and let us take care of you.
