Brake Oil Change is essential for maintaining your car’s braking performance, especially in Dubai’s demanding driving conditions. Brake oil, or brake fluid, plays a critical role in transferring the force from your brake pedal to the braking components. Over time, it absorbs moisture and loses effectiveness, which can compromise safety. At Top Fix Auto Repair, we offer expert brake oil change services using premium fluids suited to your car’s specifications. Our certified technicians ensure your brake system works flawlessly, giving you peace of mind every time you hit the brakes.
Changing your brake oil regularly protects your brake system and ensures your safety on the road. Here are key signs you need a brake oil change:
Spongy or Soft Brake Pedal: Indicates moisture or air in the system.
Brake Warning Light: Often triggered by low or degraded brake fluid.
Less Power to Stop: Reduced braking efficiency can be caused by old or contaminated brake oil.
Burning Smell After Braking: May suggest overheated fluid that requires urgent attention.
Fluid Leak: Brake fluid near your wheels is a clear sign something’s wrong and needs fixing.

1. How often should I change my car’s brake oil?
It’s recommended to change your brake oil every 2 years or every 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. However, in Dubai’s extreme heat and stop-and-go traffic, it’s wise to check your brake fluid more frequently. At Top Fix Auto Repair, we can inspect and test your fluid to give you a more precise recommendation based on your car and driving habits.
2. What happens if I don’t change my brake oil regularly?
Failing to change your brake oil allows moisture and contaminants to build up in the system. This can lead to:
Reduced braking power
Soft or spongy brake pedal
Corroded brake components
Complete brake failure in extreme cases
Regular brake oil change helps maintain braking efficiency and protects the critical parts of your braking system from damage.
3. Can I drive my car if the brake oil is low or old?
Technically yes, but it’s unsafe. Low or degraded brake fluid can cause your brakes to fail unexpectedly, especially in emergency situations. It compromises your ability to stop effectively, putting you and others on the road at serious risk. If you notice any warning signs, visit Top Fix Auto Repair immediately for a quick brake fluid check.
4. How do I know if my brake oil needs changing?
Here are the most common signs:
Brake pedal feels soft or spongy
Braking takes longer than usual
Dashboard brake warning light is on
Burnt smell after heavy braking
Fluid looks dirty, cloudy, or dark when inspected
Our technicians at Top Fix Auto Repair use advanced diagnostic tools to test your brake oil and tell you exactly when it needs changing.
5. Is it safe to use any brake fluid?
No, not all brake fluids are the same. Using the wrong type can cause severe damage to your brake system. Every vehicle has a specific brake fluid type recommended by the manufacturer (DOT3, DOT4, etc.). At Top Fix Auto Repair, we use only manufacturer-approved, high-performance brake fluids tailored for your car’s needs to guarantee safety and reliability.
