Brake and Clutch Fluid
Brake and Clutch Fluid
Check the fluid level in the
reservoirs monthly. There are up
to three reservoirs, depending on
which model. They are:
Brake fluid reservoir (all
models).
Clutch fluid reservoir (5-speed
manual transmission only).
ABS reservoir for cars with ABS
option.
The brake fluid in the brake and
anti-lock brake systems should be
replaced every 2 years or 30,000
miles (48,000 km), whichever
comes first.
Brake System
The fluid level should be between
the MIN and MAX marks on the
side of the reservoir. If the level is
at or below the MIN mark, it is an
indication that your brake system
needs attention. Have the brake
system inspected for leaks or
worn brake pads.
If you add brake fluid to bring it
up to the MAX mark, use Genuine
Honda Brake Fluid or an equivalent
from a sealed container that is
marked DOT 3 or DOT 4 only.
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not
compatible with your car's braking
system.
