ams said:Only had brake fluid service done 2 years ago and have done about 5K miles since. Mercedes are saying its due again. Does it really need changing again?
Maybe because it is hygroscopic (water absorbing) not related to miles covered.
You can buy a tester for about £20 to test it for yourself, if it tests okay you can leave it a while longer.
IF the pedal goes long or spongy, of course it needs attention
It's probably worth noting that if the pedal goes spongy because you've boiled the fluid, that's different from going spongy because there's moisture in the lines. - Boiled fluid will cool and the brakes them come back.
I like to do brake fluid every 2 years to keep all the nipples nice and free.
Doesnt take long to do and should cost much if combined with a service.
