Brake fluid usage

[DBedford]

If you’re topping up the brake fluid there is a leak somewhere. Time to get jacked it up and view underneath.

One reason for replacing fluid in a modern car would be to prolong the life of the ABS pump. My last car ABS pump siezed due to corrosion after nearly 15 years. Maybe if I'd changed the brake fluid it would not have done so. Maybe not. Only one of the reasons it was scrapped.
