Top up your car's brake fluid

Your brakes won't work if the fluid level is too low. Haynes, the world's leading publisher of car manuals, shows you how easy it is to top it up.

@buttsaab2520 : most cars use the same type of brake hydraulic fluid. The exception is some Citroen models which use a different type of fluid called LHM. You'll find details in the Haynes manual for your car.

usually when your brake fluid is at min it translates that you need a brake chance because the fluid pushes the pistions in the calipars which pushes the pads.  you add just to shut the indicator light off.
