What is Brake Fluid?

Before discerning if you need a Brake fluid replacement near Beverly Hills, it's wise to ensure you have a firm understanding of the role of brake fluid. Brake fluid works by transferring the force of your brake pedal into pressure. This pressure allows your brakes to engage and bring you to a safe stop during your commute. Since liquid cannot be condensed, it's the perfect medium for transferring power in a braking system.

Signs You Need a Brake Fluid Replacement

If you need fresh brake fluid, there are several signs that can serve as a warning. Red flags to keep an eye out for when you need fresh brake fluid include:

• Pedal Issues: If your brake pedal is difficult to press, your brake lines likely need more fluid. Once the brake pedal becomes unusually soft, you need fresh brake fluid.
• ABS Light: ABS stands for Anti-lock Braking System, so if you see an ABS warning light in your dash, you have an issue with your brakes. Generally, adding some fresh brake fluid will fix this problem.
• Poor Brake Pad Performance: Old brake fluid impacts the performance of your brake pads. If you hear squealing, grinding, or any other odd sounds while you brake, visit us for brake fluid care.
• Burnt Smell: If your brakes are overheating, they'll produce a harsh, burnt chemical smell. Pullover immediately and allow your brakes to cool.

If you notice any of these issues, don't hesitate to schedule service with Audi Beverly Hills. Our team will restore your vehicle and your confidence and get you back on the Los Angeles streets in no time.
