When is it Time to Change Brake Fluid? Here`s the explanation

Posted on December 19, 2023August 8, 2025 by syauqi wiryahasana

Many drivers focus their attention more on components such as lining, drum, or brake disc when discussing the braking system. However, among these components, there is one element that is often forgotten, even though it has an important role in the braking system, namely brake fluid.

In hydraulic brake systems, especially disc brakes, the presence of brake fluid is crucial. Without brake fluid, the hydraulic brake system will not function even if the brake pedal has been pressed many times on a car or the brake lever is pumped firmly on a motorbike. In other words, without brake fluid, the braking system will not operate optimally, and can even cause brake failure.

When should the brake fluid be changed?

As with other components, brake fluid must also be replaced regularly. The obligation to replace the brake fluid arises because there are additives in the brake fluid that have an expiration date.

Regarding replacement time, according to the official Suzuki website, ideally the brake fluid should be replaced every 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers. In terms of cost, replacing brake fluid is an affordable maintenance, costing around 30-50 thousand rupiah, which includes installation costs and new brake fluid.

Before carrying out repairs, it is important to pay attention to the quality of the brake fluid. Quality brake fluid must have several characteristics, including:

– High boiling point so it doesn’t evaporate easily. – Protection from rust or corrosion. .- Does not cause deposits that can clog brake fluid lines.

In order for the brake system to operate optimally, it is recommended to carry out a thorough service, including cleaning, resetting, checking pistons, calipers and rubber.
