Brake fluid transfers the pressure you put on the brake pedal through to the actual brakes.
Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work. As everyone knows - not having brakes is a huge problem! In fact even slightly affected brakes are very dangerous.


Brake fluid absorbs moisture very easily. Brake fluids are also subject to very high temperatures and so they are designed to have a high boiling point to stop them from boiling and evaporating- when brake fluid has accumulated too much moisture- this lowers its boiling point and it can boil off more easily causing low levels. Low levels of brake fluid affect your braking performance and could mean your car will fail to stop.
Brake Fluid that has absorbed too much moisture will also shorten the life of your braking system including damaging the callipers, wheel cylinders and anti-lock braking systems.

Why is brake fluid replacement necessary?

Your manufacturer's log book will advise how regularly your brake fluid should be changed or flushed, we recommend a drain and replacement every two years however it is wise to have it regularly checked by an expert at every service to make sure the levels are not reducing too fast (a sign of a leak) or that the moisture levels have not reached a point that could be damaging your system.

How often should I replace my brake fluid?

At Tyrewise Warana we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report, upon request, with every full car service which includes a written review of your brake fluid, master cylinder, front and back discs and pads, callipers and cylinders and more. This inspection helps to identify any issues in your vehicle which should be addressed and our mechanics will certainly advise you if they feel your vehicle might need a brake fluid replacement, or an out of schedule brake system service or repairs.

Brake fluid - what is it and why do I need it? 

The clutch is a critical component in your car's transmission system, and it plays an essential role in your vehicle's overall performance. Unfortunately, like any other part of your vehicle, clutches can fail, and when they do, they can create major issues.

It's crucial to identify a faulty clutch as early as possible and have it repaired or replaced by a trusted professional. Here are some of the signs to look out for:

Difficulty Changing Gears - One of the most apparent signs of a failing clutch is difficulty changing gears. You may find that it takes more force to change gears than it did before, or the clutch may seem to slip, making it harder to shift smoothly.

Unusual Noises - If you hear any unusual noises when you press down on the clutch, this could be a sign that something is wrong. Squealing or grinding noises may indicate that the clutch is not working correctly.

Burning Smell - If you smell a burning odour when you drive your car, this could also be a sign that your clutch is failing. The friction created by a worn-out clutch can create heat, causing the clutch to overheat and create a burning smell.

We recently had a customer in who needed their boat trailer brakes replaced.

There's nothing quite like a day out on the water with your boat, but getting it there can be a stressful experience if your trailer isn't up to scratch. A well-maintained trailer with properly functioning brakes is essential for safe transportation, so let's talk about why regular trailer servicing is so important.

Boat trailers are exposed to some harsh conditions, especially when used in saltwater environments. Rust and corrosion can damage brakes and make them less effective over time. Dirt, sand and gravel can get lodged in brake systems, causing wear and tear and reducing braking power.

Regular servicing can prevent these problems before they happen. Brake systems should be checked annually by a specialist to make sure that they are clean, lubricated and working properly. Boat trailer owners should also be familiar with their braking systems and perform basic checks before every trip.

At Tyrewise Warana, we know trailers inside and out. Our team of experts are trained in all things trailer, including servicing, maintenance, and repairs. We take pride in providing our customers with the highest level of service and expertise.
