Why Moisture in Brake Fluid is a Serious Issue
| Interviews
An article in African Automotive News highlights the dangers posed by moisture in brake fluid—a critical factor affecting vehicle safety and performance. In this feature, our Managing Director, Ilona Wilms, emphasizes the importance of regular brake fluid inspections to mitigate potential risks.
Moisture can lower the boiling point of brake fluid, cause corrosion to key components such as brake lines and calipers, and, in the worst-case scenario, lead to brake failure. Signs like discolored or cloudy fluid, spongy braking, or even bubble formation in the brake fluid are clear warning signals that require immediate action.
FOSSER recommends the following key measures:
- Regular visual inspections of brake fluid.
- Utilizing modern testing devices to measure moisture content.
- Adhering to manufacturer-recommended brake fluid replacement intervals.
