To appreciate the importance of brake maintenance, it is essential to understand the primary components that make up your car's braking system. These include:

Understanding the Components of a Car's Braking System

Brake Pads and Shoes: These components create the necessary friction to slow down or stop the vehicle. Brake pads work with disc brakes, while shoes are used with drum brakes.

Rotors and Drums: Rotors are the discs that the brake pads clamp down on to stop the vehicle. Drums perform a similar function for drum brakes, working in conjunction with the brake shoes.

Calipers: These are the clamping mechanisms that press the brake pads against the rotors. Properly functioning calipers are vital for effective braking.

Brake Lines and Hoses: These transport brake fluid from the master cylinder to the brakes themselves, enabling hydraulic pressure to be applied.

Master Cylinder: This component is responsible for converting the force from the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure that actuates the brakes.

Brake Fluid: Essential for hydraulic braking systems, this fluid transfers the force created when you press the brake pedal.

Expert Brake Maintenance by Garage 135 in Camden Park

Brake fluid transfers the pressure you put on the brake pedal through to the actual brakes.
Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work. As everyone knows - not having brakes is a huge problem! In fact even slightly affected brakes are very dangerous.


Brake fluid absorbs moisture very easily. Brake fluids are also subject to very high temperatures and so they are designed to have a high boiling point to stop them from boiling and evaporating- when brake fluid has accumulated too much moisture- this lowers its boiling point and it can boil off more easily causing low levels. Low levels of brake fluid affect your braking performance and could mean your car will fail to stop.
Brake Fluid that has absorbed too much moisture will also shorten the life of your braking system including damaging the callipers, wheel cylinders and anti-lock braking systems.

Why is brake fluid replacement necessary?

Your manufacturer's log book will advise how regularly your brake fluid should be changed or flushed, we recommend a drain and replacement every two years however it is wise to have it regularly checked by an expert at every service to make sure the levels are not reducing too fast (a sign of a leak) or that the moisture levels have not reached a point that could be damaging your system.

How often should I replace my brake fluid?

At Garage 135 we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report, upon request, with every full car service which includes a written review of your brake fluid, master cylinder, front and back discs and pads, callipers and cylinders and more. This inspection helps to identify any issues in your vehicle which should be addressed and our mechanics will certainly advise you if they feel your vehicle might need a brake fluid replacement, or an out of schedule brake system service or repairs.

Do you check the brake fluids during a car service?

Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work.
