Understanding Brake Fluid for Your Ford Edge
When it comes to maintaining the braking system of your Ford Edge, the role of brake fluid is paramount. Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid used in the brake hydraulics system, which is essential for the proper functioning of your car's brakes. It is designed to transfer the force from your brake pedal to the brake pads, enabling your vehicle to come to a halt efficiently and safely.
Choosing the Right Brake Fluid for Your Ford Edge
Selecting the correct brake fluid for your Ford Edge is crucial for ensuring that the braking system operates effectively. The manufacturer's specifications for your model will guide you to the appropriate type of brake fluid, which typically falls into different grades such as DOT 3, DOT 4, or DOT 5.1, depending on the boiling point and performance characteristics required.
Maintenance and Replacement of Brake Fluid
Over time, brake fluid can degrade due to moisture absorption, which can lead to a decrease in its boiling point and potentially affect your braking performance. It is recommended to check the brake fluid levels regularly and to follow your Ford Edge's service schedule for replacing the brake fluid to maintain the integrity of your brake hydraulics system.
Signs That Your Ford Edge Needs New Brake Fluid
If you notice any changes in the braking performance of your Ford Edge, such as a spongy brake pedal or increased stopping distances, it may be time to inspect your brake fluid. Discoloration or a burnt smell from the brake fluid can also indicate that it is time for a replacement.

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.
