What are the procedures to to change the brake fluids on a Volvo S60 2002?

What are the procedures to to change the brake fluids on a Volvo S60 2002?|||The easiest and quickest way is to have someone pump the brakes while you open the bleed valve at each brake caliper. Put a clear hose over the end of the valve to catch the old fluid into a container and make sure you put in fresh fluid all the while into the brake fluid reservoir. You will know when you have entirely fresh fluid in the system. It will not have the yellow tinge that the old fluid will have.





Contrary to what one person answered, yes you do need to change the fluid at the recommended intervals. Brake fluid deteriorates over time.|||I prefer to use a pressure bleeder. There are a few kinds, but the important thing is the it does a better job of removing all the fluid. My advice is that even though you can do all of the other maintenance on your own vehicle, this is best left up to a shop if you don't have a pressure bleeder.|||I don't think you have to change the fluid.


Just add brake fluid.
