Reader Question" I've got a question, can I upgrade my brake fluid myself, and
if so how?

Thank you quite a bit,

Tammy,

Thanks the particular email. You CAN affect the brake fluid yourself. The easiest and safest way to do it is to huge the "brake bleeder screws" stumbled across behind each wheel (if in doubt ask your mechanic to indicate these out to you), or loosen the braking system line behind each wheel may well allow the fluid to opportunity seekers drip out slowly just with the power of gravity.

This might take an hour or two, so be patient. Why don'tyou remove the brake fluid reservoir cover about brake master cylinder and let the fluid event to so low that air will get in the lines!!!! Build and maintain the brake fluid fish tank cover off and filled with clean fluid until all the dirty fluid has drain out.

Once the countryside fluid has drained, re-tighten every step of the bleeder screws or brake lines that you loosened!!!

The other way to do this is to wait till your vehicle needs a brake job and get your mechanic do it while he is replacing the brake pedal pads. There will be these types of charge, but it can't very much as brake fluid "bleeding" have been necessary during a craze brake job.
