Check of level of brake liquid

Tank with brake liquid (2):

1–level marks, are lower connection for a control bulb;
3–cover.

Continuous check

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. About too low level of brake liquid in Audi 80 you though will be warned by the indicator on a control panel, but nevertheless it is impossible to refuse visual control:
  2. To open a cowl and if necessary to clear a rag a receiver of brake liquid.
  3. Level of brake liquid should be in a transparent tank between «min» and «max» marks. In this case everything is all right.

Too low level of liquid?

If overlays of the disk brake mechanism wore out already a little, level of liquid is most likely near the bottom mark; if they new, most likely it is above. It is absolutely normal, because the pistons of the disk brake mechanism acting at worn-out slips already a few are farther, leave in cylinders of supports bigger volume which is filled with brake liquid.

The critical moment comes, if level of brake liquid in a tank falls below the minimum mark. As brake liquid does not evaporate and is not spent, it means that in system somewhere there is not tight place. Therefore it is necessary to look for urgently the reason and a leakage place, without waiting, while the pedal of a brake will leave in emptiness. It is simple to add liquids in a tank is a self-deception!
