Brake Fluid Flush - When?

« on: January 07, 2010, 04:29:57 PM »

Hi All,

I wanted to get your input as to when brake fluid should be flushed. Based on my experience, a forum search, as well as google search, the fluid should be changed every 2-3 years.

Is this the same with the xB2? Typically I would think so, but I was blown away when I found out that the fuel filter was not serviceable; not to mention the timing chain.

LMK your thoughts, and TIA.

Well, I have been reading my maintenance manual, and have not found anything about replacing brake fluid. I am not sure about that. I mean to feel more confident (and better for the car), replacing it is good.

These are my important service (I think):

Oil Change - every 3K
Coolant Flush/Replacement - every 60K
Transmission Fluid - every 30K
Spark Plugs - every 60K

and...

I probably use a bottle of Chevron Techron Concentrated every 15K. I use nothing but Chevron with Techron (well, sometimes Shell with V-Power).
