Brake And Clutch Fluid - Acura 2010 TL Owner's Manual

Check the fluid level in the
reservoirs monthly. There are up to
two reservoirs, depending on the
model. They are:
Brake fluid reservoir (all models)
Clutch fluid reservoir
(manual transmission models
only)
To access the reservoirs, remove the
left engine compartment cover (see
page 508 ).
You will also see a ''LOW BRAKE
FLUID'' message on the multi-
information display.
Replace the brake fluid every 3 years,
independent of the maintenance
message in the multi-information
display.
Always use Honda Heavy Duty
Brake Fluid DOT 3. If it is not
available, you should use only DOT 3
or DOT 4 fluid, from a sealed
container, as a temporary
replacement.
Using any non-Honda brake fluid can
cause corrosion and decrease the life
of the system. Have the brake
system flushed and refilled with
Honda Heavy Duty Brake Fluid
DOT 3 as soon as possible.
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not
compatible with your vehicle's
braking system and can cause
extensive damage.
