The brake fluid requires routine replacement because it is 'hydroscopic', which means it attracts and absorbs water. Water in the brake fluid is damaging to the modern ABS systems including the MINI which is why they recommend fluid replacement every TWO years. Why not check the water content in your brake fluid to see when you really need to replace it?

With the Brake Fluid Tester it is possible to check quickly and precisely the water percentage in the glycol based brake fluid: Five LED?s indicate exactly the water percentage in the brake fluid.

You can recognize exactly when the brake fluid needs to be changed. The tester also has a self check mode.

Car, truck and motorcycle workshops use the Brake Fluid Tester as a service during the instant check to inform the customer before any work commences. Based on the result, you can decide whether to change the brake fluid or not. This is a great tool to monitor the condition of the brake fluid to protect your MINIs complex ABS system.

The housing is made out of impact-resistant and break-proof plastic, which underlines the professional appearance. The acid-resistant, glass-fibre reinforced housing guaranties long product life.
