In Reply to: Change Brake Fluid ? posted by Lesformore on June 08, 2009 at 20:09:06:
Do it. As mentioned below if the fluid in your reservoir it dark - imagine what its like down in the lines near your wheel cylinders and calipers.
As for never having that kind of failure - I see it all the time in older vehicles. Rust and contaminates build up until you have to replace wheel cylinders/calipers and lines so your brakes will work. With everything have ABS brakes the mechanics of the system has to be in good/excellent shape for the computer to operate correctly.
People will say they never had to replace brake fluid “in the old days” but 30 years ago brakes were replaced every 30k and fluid was partially flushed out in the bleeding process. Vehicles that didn’t see much mileage would suffer brake failure on a regular basis (how many old farm trucks that sat through the winter wouldn’t have brakes in the spring?).
