A modern car must be technically sound, and the operation of its systems and components must be clearly regulated. As a rule, it is carried out automatically, that is, it does not require driver intervention. However, even strict measures do not guarantee the ideal condition of the system: sometimes it requires repair or diagnostics.

Brake system – This is one of the most important components that is responsible for the safety of driving a car. Therefore, first of all, you need to regularly service and replace the brake pads, as well as ensure that the brake system is cleaned in a timely manner. One of the most basic elements of the braking system is fluid, which ensures efficient braking.

In this article we will analyze in detail what brake fluid is, what functions it performs and how to use it correctly.

Braking technology in a car is used to stop and slow down the car, thereby ensuring safe driving. Before you go to a car shop, you need to clearly understand what kind of brake fluid you need in your car. Before purchasing or adding fluid to the brake system, you should read the technical documentation and instructions of the car manufacturer. The fact is that brake fluid must have the appropriate properties. As a rule, the technical passport indicates the marking of the required liquid.

It is strictly forbidden to mix different brake fluids. If you decide to change the brake fluid, it is recommended to pre-flush the brake system with a special solution. But, it is better not to show “ingenuity” and not change the technical specification, but strictly follow the technical characteristics specified by the manufacturer. Remember that the safety of passengers depends on the brakes.

Proper operation of the brake system is one of the most important conditions for safe and efficient operation of the machine. Therefore, to ensure all technical characteristics and performance indicators, it is recommended to use only high-quality and certified brake fluids.
