What is a brake fluid service?

Posted on 9/16/2019


A brake fluid service is when we flush out all of your brake lines and hydraulic components with new fluid. Over time your brake fluid will draw moisture and that moisture is hard on your braking components. Over time that moisture will begin to turn green and grow algae. When that contaminated fluid goes through your hydraulic system which consists of your brake calipers, brake master cylinder, brake booster it can cause damage and failure of those parts. Not every car has all of these components, but they all have at least one of them. A brake fluid service is good preventative maintenance and will help to prevent future issues.


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


Happy Adventures,
