Is anyone else’s Mg using a lot of brake fluid? I have topped mine up 4 times in 25,000 miles, it’s been in the garage but they say it just needed topped up. I have never had this with any other car but this is my first EV, is this normal?
I would say, that unless you are riding the brake pedal or are a very heavy on your braking, then this is NOT normal at all !.
Regardless if it's an ICE or EV.
If excessive wear was the issue, then it would be clearly evident by a quick check of the amount of brake pad material that has been consumed already in the 25,000 miles covered.
As a very quick general guide, fluid can be required as the brake shoes / pads reduce in thickness due to wear.
As a result, the brake pistons now have a greater distance to travel.
This results in an extra displacement of fluid from the reservoir, therefore a small drop in the level.
If your brake pad wear is not excessive and level continues to drop, you have a leak !.
I can not see any other reason why fluid is needed.
I guess an important question maybe, just how much fluid have you been topping up the brake reservoir with ?.
Based purely on a personal basis of my type of driving style, I would NOT be expecting to top up my brake fluid at all in 25,000 miles TBH.
