Check brake fluid level
Brake fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment. It is divided into two chambers, one for each circuit of the brake actuator. The screw bolt has a ventilation hole, which should not be blocked. The tank is transparent, so that the brake fluid at any time may be controlled externally. It is advisable at regular intervals glances at the tank. The liquid level in the closed lid must be between the "max" and "min", embossed in the tank. Fill the brake fluid DOT 4 specification only. Due to the wear of the brake disc comes a slight decrease in the level of brake fluid. This is normal. But if for a short time greatly reduced the level of brake fluid, then it is a sign of a leak. In this case, you should immediately find the leak. For security reasons, the brake system should be checked in a specialist garage.
