Tends to make the steel ..and alloy.. parts corrode.. the corrosion makes a rough surface.. which damages the rubber seals
The other issue.. in periods of Heavy ..Prolonged ..braking
The systems work REALLY hard..generating LOTS of heat.. this heat can heat the fluid enough that the water ' boils' and will tesult in loss of braking pressure.
Not ideal 2/3 down a mountain.
At 9 years old.. the fluid will be in a poor state.
Get all the parts together.. spray awkward fittings for a few days before doing the job.. so it has the best chance of things unscrewing.. rather than shearing.
Okay thank you for the info, do you think I should just take to a garage? Think it’s about £40 at my local Halfords, sometimes don’t trust my patience lol
