Symptoms of Contaminated Brake Fluid in Audi A5

1
SYMPTOMS OF CONTAMINATED BRAKE FLUID IN AUDI A5
2
Hydraulic fluid used in the braking system of
your Audi transfers the force created on the
brake pedals to the rotors.
3
However, contamination of such a crucial fluid
could make the braking system of your vehicle
unresponsive.
4
Brake fluid is hygroscopic which means it absorbs
moisture from the atmosphere.
5
Presence of an excess amount of moisture and
other types of contaminants in the brake fluid
could kill the braking system.
6
So, you should be aware of the symptoms of
contaminated brake fluid in your Audi A5.
7
UNRESPONSIVE BRAKING SYSTEM
8
As mentioned earlier, the primary job of brake
fluid is to transfer force from the brake pedals
to the rotors.
9
Heavy contamination could adversely affect the
hydraulic property of the brake fluid which could
make the braking system unresponsive.
10
So, contaminated brake fluid should be replaced
after a certain time interval.
11
ABS LIGHT COMES ON
12
Anti-lock braking system of your Audi A5 relies
on the brake fluid to maintain the braking
pressure within the system.
13
However, if the ABS control module detects any
kind of errors in the system due to contaminated
brake fluid, then it would turn on the ABS light.
14
So, illumination of ABS light on the dashboard of
your Audi A5 should not be ignored.
15
ABNORMAL NOISE AND SMELL
16
If the braking system of your vehicle makes
abnormal noise while pressing the brake pedals,
then it shows that brake fluid is old.
17
Moreover, the emergence of an unusual burning
smell also a clear indication of heavily
contaminated brake fluid.
18
FINAL THOUGHTS
19
Failure of the braking system in your Audi due to
heavy contamination of brake fluid could have
disastrous consequences.
20
So, inspect the quality of brake fluid on a daily
basis and replace it if necessary.
