Manyanda Tyres also provides brake fluid changes to keep your brakes performing at their best.
Brake fluid is an essential component for stopping the car, with brakes unable to operate without it. Over time, brake fluid can decline in quality as it absorbs water during its lifespan, negatively impacting the effectiveness of your car’s braking system.
Some telltale signs that your brake fluid may need replacing include fluid that’s dark in colour or the presence of air bubbles and/or debris. If you’re not sure what you should be looking for, it’s always worth getting a professional to check over your vehicle.
Our technicians can diagnose issues with your brakes and will drain the current fluid before refilling your system with replacement brake fluid. This is usually performed using a pressure bleeder to avoid the brake fluid interacting with the air, which can impact the quality of the fluid. Overall, a brake fluid replacement takes around 30 – 45 minutes, making it a quick way to maintain your vehicle’s safety and reliability.
It’s always best to get a professional to perform a fluid replacement, as performing it incorrectly at home can negatively impact your car’s braking ability.
