Nmnhnlm Clutched December 31, 2009 Share December 31, 2009 Changing Brake fluid base on distant travelled or the fluid colour is not accurate, it's best to use a moisture meter to gauge the % of moisture in the system. Wah, don't have to be that fierce lar.... You won't lose your brakes just because of moisture in the fluid. It will just become spongy and less sensitive over time. When that happens, just change the fluid lor. Seriously, I would be more worried about brake pads, rotors and tyres. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
