What should be done and what is a fair price? (1 Viewer)

their argument is that it is hydroscopic (which it is) and needs to be changed because of the water it will have absorbed. Don't shoot the messenger .

The Fiat Professional commercial garage I use say it should be tested to see if it has absorbed water, then changed if necessary, not routinely.

I've had a local garage as a customer for over 23 years and he's still totally amazed at the brake fluid scam. He has 5 fitters and services thousands of vans and trucks every year. He says replacing brake fluid is a rarity but he checks it as part of the service. Most garages love a customer who wants the fluid changed. Whether they do it but charge is another matter.
