Importance of moisture content and your brake fluid

Brake fluid is probably one of the most ignored fluids on your vehicle. The reason to pay attention to your brake fluid is because it takes a beating from its surroundings. It goes through extreme temperature swings from ambient temperatures to 650 degrees Fahrenheit. It is hygroscopic, which means it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. What does that mean for you? Well moisture, causes corrosion, moisture also expands when heated to and can cause excessive wear to your brake system by keeping undue pressure on the system. Also, with it being hygroscopic, in the winter when it gets below freezing it can make your brakes less responsive until the fluid heats up. Water content of brake fluid can be measured easily. The cost of a brake fluid flush is very inexpensive, and worth every penny for what it will save you in repair costs. So please feel free to stop by and let us check your brake fluid for moisture content at 1225 Hayes Industrial Dr Marietta Ga 30062
