Brakes are more than just a collection of metal parts that provide braking power – there’s fluid that plays a crucial role, too. Brake fluid protects your brake system from damage associated with repeated metal-on-metal contact in your brakes. When brake fluid begins to break down, it will not only decrease your brake performance from what you’re used to, but it will also become corrosive and can subsequently damage your braking system. In short, it’s best to replace your brake fluid following the recommendations in your owner’s manual, or you could be facing much more significant repair bills. Schedule your brake fluid exchange today with the certified technicians at Cooley Volkswagen, Rensselaer’s premium Volkswagen service department.
Brake fluid is a hygroscopic fluid, meaning that it absorbs moisture from the air when exposed. When it begins to absorb that moisture, it gradually becomes increasingly corrosive to your brake system, which can lead to you needing replacement parts. We have genuine OEM parts to replace any worn-out brake parts with Cooley Volkswagen, but brake fluid exchanges will help to prevent you from needing to purchase replacement parts frequently. Worn out brake fluid also will show itself in the form of a general decrease in braking performance, where you begin to notice that it takes longer to bring your vehicle to a stop and that you have to press the brake pedal harder/further than you normally would to get the same amount of braking power.
There’s plenty of independent shops that claim to specialize in brake service, but they may not have the same Volkswagen-specific qualifications we do at Cooley Volkswagen. Our certified technicians have trained for years to be able to service Volkswagen vehicles of all ages and models and know how to handle all aspects of Volkswagen maintenance – not just brakes. Get your Volkswagen serviced by certified Volkswagen technicians at Cooley Volkswagen for best performance results.
