Explanation: A BG Products brake fluid exchange is a specialized service that uses BG’s high-quality brake fluid and advanced equipment, like the BG BFX Brake Fluid Exchanger, to completely replace old, contaminated brake fluid with fresh fluid. This maintenance is critical for your vehicle’s braking system for the following reasons:

​

1. Enhanced Braking Performance and Safety: Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point and can lead to a spongy brake pedal or reduced stopping power. A BG brake fluid exchange removes moisture and contaminants, ensuring a firm, responsive brake pedal and reliable stopping performance, critical for driver safety.

2. Prevention of Corrosion: Contaminated brake fluid can cause corrosion in brake components like calipers, master cylinders, and brake lines. BG’s Low Viscosity DOT 4 Brake Fluid, used in the exchange, provides superior corrosion protection, especially for vehicles with ABS and ESP systems, helping to prevent costly repairs.

3. Extended Brake System Life: The BG brake fluid exchange removes oxidized fluid and debris that can damage brake system components. By using BG’s specially formulated fluid, the service prevents varnish buildup and prolongs the life of critical parts, reducing the risk of brake failure.

4. Efficient and Clean Process: The BG BFX Brake Fluid Exchanger performs a fast, mess-free fluid exchange in minutes, using a one-person, touch-of-a-button operation. This ensures a thorough flush of the entire brake system, unlike traditional methods that may leave old fluid behind, maximizing system performance.

5. Manufacturer Compliance and Warranty Support: Many vehicle manufacturers recommend brake fluid exchanges every 2–3 years or 30,000–45,000 miles. The BG service aligns with these guidelines and uses high-quality fluid compatible with most vehicles (except those requiring DOT 5 silicone fluid), helping maintain warranty coverage and system integrity.

​

When to Do a BG Brake Fluid Exchange: Check your owner’s manual for specific intervals, but most vehicles benefit from a brake fluid exchange every 2 years or 30,000 miles. Signs that you need this service include a spongy brake pedal, reduced braking responsiveness, or dark, cloudy brake fluid. If you drive in humid climates or frequently use your brakes (e.g., in stop-and-go traffic or mountainous areas), more frequent exchanges may be necessary.

By opting for a BG Products brake fluid exchange, you ensure safer braking, protect your vehicle’s brake system, and maintain optimal performance with a professional, efficient service backed by high-quality products. Schedule this service at a BG-authorized shop to keep your car running safely and reliably.
