Jim, is it better to do brake fluid change before winter storage (just like oil) or after?

Hi,

It's a toss up - Change it in the Fall to prevent any built up moisture from attacking your Braking System, or change it in the Spring so you have the lowest possible moisture content through the Driving Season.

Personally, I do it in the Spring to gain maximum benefit from the Fluid for driving. Corrosion will shorten your Braking Systems life, but probably not too badly if you habitually change it every year...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
