The Importance of Brake Fluid in Your Audi S8
For your Audi S8, maintaining a properly functioning braking system is crucial for safety and performance. At the heart of this system lies the brake hydraulics, which rely heavily on the quality and integrity of the brake fluid. Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid that is used to transfer force into pressure, and amplify braking force. Without the right brake fluid, your S8's braking efficiency can be significantly compromised.
Choosing the Right Brake Fluid for Your Audi S8
When selecting brake fluid for your Audi S8, it's important to choose one that meets the specifications recommended by Audi. Using the incorrect type of fluid can lead to decreased braking performance or even damage to the braking system. Brake fluid is categorized by its boiling point and by whether it is glycol-based or silicone-based. For high-performance vehicles like the S8, a higher boiling point is preferable to withstand the intense heat generated during braking.
Signs That Your Audi S8 Needs Brake Fluid Replacement
There are several signs that indicate your Audi S8 may need a brake fluid replacement. If you notice a spongy feeling when you press the brake pedal, or if the pedal goes closer to the floor than usual, this may be a sign that the brake fluid is contaminated with moisture. Also, if the brake warning light illuminates on your dashboard, it's a signal to check your brake fluid among other components of the braking system.
Maintaining Brake Fluid in Your Audi S8
Regularly checking the brake fluid level and condition is a part of essential maintenance for your S8. Brake fluid should be clear or slightly yellowish in color, and it should be free of any debris or contamination. Over time, brake fluid can absorb moisture from the environment, which can lower its boiling point and reduce braking performance. Therefore, it's recommended to replace the brake fluid in your Audi S8 at intervals specified by the manufacturer or as needed.

If you're unsure about how to properly check or replace your brake fluid, it's always best to seek professional help. A certified technician can ensure that the correct type of brake fluid is used and that it is replaced correctly, keeping your Audi S8's braking system in optimal condition.

What is Brake Fluid?
Brake fluid is essential for keeping your braking system moving seamlessly. This fluid works under high temperatures and pressure, converting the force exerted into pressure to keep your brakes working to their optimum performance level. It is sold in liquid form as these are not compressible, so they will last you longer. Your brake fluid will deteriorate over time, so you must change it every 2 years to ensure your brakes are functioning effectively. We can show you how to bleed your brakes with our easy-to-follow guide.
In this range, you will find an extensive selection of hydraulic fluid, including DOT 4 brake fluid, all available in different quantities, so you can be sure your car is always running to its full potential.
