Brake Fluid Change in Rowlett
A brake fluid change is an essential part of brake system maintenance. Also known as a brake fluid flush, regularly changing brake fluid keeps your vehicle’s braking system functioning at an optimal level. Our Rowlett auto repair shop offers brake fluid changes as part of our comprehensive brake maintenance services and repairs.
There are two common questions we hear most often:
-
How often do I need to change brake fluid? The answer varies depending on your vehicle's make and model. Manufacturers recommend different intervals—some suggest changing brake fluid every 2 years or 20,000 miles, while others recommend changing it every 3 years, regardless of mileage. If you’re unsure, bring your vehicle to Parkway Car Care in Rowlett, and we will test the brake fluid to determine if it needs to be exchanged.
-
Why do I need to change brake fluid at all? There are two important reasons for changing brake fluid: chemical additives and moisture. Brake fluid contains special chemicals designed to protect the components of the brake system. Over time, these chemicals deteriorate and cease to perform their function. Additionally, brake fluid is highly hygroscopic, meaning it attracts moisture. Over time, the water content in the brake fluid increases to the point that it not only corrodes brake system components but can also negatively impact brake performance. ABS brakes are particularly vulnerable.
Our Rowlett auto repair shop employs highly skilled, nationally ASE-certified technicians with broad auto service and repair experience. They can inspect the brake system, brake pads, calipers, and test the brake fluid, letting you know if anything needs servicing or repairing.
