Brakes

Brake Fluid

The brake master cylinder
reservoir is filled with
DOT 3 brake fluid. See
Engine Compartment
Overview on page 6 4
for the location of the
reservoir.
I n f o r ma t i o n P r o v i d e d b y :
There are only two reasons why the brake fluid level in
the reservoir might go down:
The brake fluid level goes down because of normal
brake lining wear. When new linings are installed,
the fluid level goes back up.
A fluid leak in the brake hydraulic system can also
cause a low fluid level. Have the brake hydraulic
system fixed, since a leak means that sooner or
later the brakes will not work well.
