Brake Service

Checking your brakes can go a long way toward keeping you safe and improving the longevity of your vehicle. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means it can absorb water out of the air. Even though the hydraulic system is sealed, the reservoir is not, meaning it can pull water straight from the air and into the system.

Over time, this corrodes the internal workings of your brakes’ hydraulic system. You can use a simple dip strip to test your brake fluid. If the fluid is a dirty dark brown colour, it is old and should be flushed and replaced with new fluid.
