Brake Fluid Exchange in Milwaukee, WI
The braking system on Hyundai vehicles relies on hydraulics to work properly to stop your vehicle as you drive around Milwaukee, Wisconsin. An essential component of the hydraulic system is brake fluid. You create pressure that forces the brake fluid into the calipers when you press down on the brake pedal. This, in turn, puts pressure on the pistons inside the calipers to press outward toward the rotors on the wheels. At the end of the pistons is the bracket for the pads. As the pistons are forced outward, the pads are pressed against the rotors to slow and stop your Hyundai vehicle. If the fluid goes bad, it won’t provide the same amount of pressure and you will have difficulty stopping your vehicle and you will need a replacement or repair service.

Brake Fluid Absorbs Moisture
One of the traits of brake fluid is that it absorbs moisture because of its hygroscopic properties. As moisture infiltrates the fluid, it causes the fluid to heat more rapidly when you drive your car and use the brakes. This causes the fluid to deteriorate and lose its ability to supply sufficient force against the pistons in the calipers. In time, you will have trouble stopping your car because of this.
Signs of Bad Brake Fluid
There are several ways you can tell when it is time to change your brake fluid. The most common signs are:
- Brake Fluid Color. The color of the brake fluid will grow dark the more it is used and the more moisture infiltrates it. Instead of being clear or with a yellow tint, the fluid will look dirty and there might be particles floating in it.
- Pedal Action. In old and faded brake fluid, the brake pedal will often feel mushy when you press it down.
- Warning Lights. The bad fluid will activate the ABS or check engine warning lights on your dashboard.
