Three Most Common Brake Problems

·         Moisture

·         Air Pockets

·         Deterioration of metal components

Symptoms of Old or Deteriorated Brake Fluid:

• Spongy brake pedal
• Corrosion of brake parts
• Gradual loss of brake function

The BG Brake Service Wichita with BG Brake Fluid Conditioner is the ideal solution. Recommended every 30,000 miles (45,000 km), the BG Brake Service completely removes all the old brake fluid and replaces it with fresh fluid, supplemented with a conditioner that will maximize brake fluid performance.

BG Brake Fluid Conditioner

PN 827 New

BG Brake Fluid Conditioner slows corrosion in the brake system by maximizing brake fluid performance until your next BG Brake Service.

Brake fluidhas been known to deteriorate before manufacturer-recommended brake service intervals (which are sometimes nonexistent). When that happens, brake system components are more vulnerable to rust. Then your vehicle’s stopping ability is determined by the effectiveness of rusted brake parts.

Test strip shows copper corrosion in your brake system.

When it comes to safety, brakes are the most important component in a vehicle. One simple way to know if your brake parts are corroding is by having your technician check the copper levels in your brake fluid at each oil change. Factory-installed brake lines are made from copper-coated steel. That copper is the first thing to deteriorate, and then tiny copper ions will start to show up in the brake fluid.

The BG Brake Service Wichita  with BG Brake Fluid Conditioner is the ideal solution. Recommended every 30,000 miles (50,000 km), the BG Brake Service Wichita completely removes all the old brake fluid and replaces it with fresh fluid, supplemented with a conditioner that will maximize brake fluid performance.

The BG Brake Fluid Conditioner:

• Restores brake fluid to DOT Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 116 corrosion standards
• Effectively slows down corrosion
• Maximizes brake fluid performance
• Easy to use
• Recommended with DOT 3, DOT 4, DOT 4 LV, Super/Ultra DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 brake fluid
• Not for use in DOT 5 brake fluid

Brake fluid should be checked at every oil service. When brake fluid shows copper corrosion between 10 ppm and 150 ppm and it’s before the BG Brake Service Wichita interval (30,000 miles/50,000 km), BG Brake Fluid Conditioner will boost anti-corrosion properties and maximize brake fluid performance.

BG Low Viscosity DOT 4 Brake Fluid

PN 841

BG Low Viscosity DOT 4 Brake Fluid delivers quick brake response at low temperatures for all DOT 4 disc and drum brake systems.

BG Low Viscosity DOT 4 Brake Fluid:

• Resists vapor lock
• Protects brake components from corrosion
• Resists moisture absorption and retention
• Recommended for new ABS brake systems with stability control
• Ideal for all vehicles equipped with ESP (electronic stability program)

BG Low Viscosity DOT 4 Brake Fluid is compatible and can be used in all vehicles that require DOT 3, DOT 4, Super DOT 4 or DOT 4 Plus fluid. Meets FMVSS 116, DOT-4, ISO 4925 Class-6, and SAE J1704 standards.

BG DOT 4 Brake Fluid

PN 840

BG DOT 4 Brake Fluid provides the ultimate high temperature protection and moisture resistance for all DOT 4 disc and drum brake systems.

Brake systems can produce pressure up to 2000 psi. This pressure, along with extreme heat from the friction of braking, cause brake fluid to break down. This compromised brake fluid will boil at a lower temperature leaving air pockets and condensation in the brake system. Water in the brake system causes a myriad of problems such as brake deposits and varnish buildup.

BG DOT 4 Brake Fluid:

• Protects the brake system at any temperature
• Fights moisture
• Provides excellent rust protection
• Contains exceptional dryness and heavy duty additives, making this product an effective brake system cleaner

BG Super DOT 4 Brake Fluid

PN 835

BG Super DOT 4 Brake Fluid provides the ultimate high temperature protection and high boiling point protection beyond regular DOT 4 fluid.

Brake systems can produce pressure up to 2000 psi! This pressure – along with extreme heat from the friction of braking – causes brake fluid to break down. This compromised brake fluid will boil at a lower temperature leaving air pockets and condensation in the brake system. Water in the brake system causes a myriad of problems such as brake deposits and varnish buildup.

BG Super DOT 4 Brake Fluid:

• Protects the brake system at any temperature
• Provides excellent rust protection in all brake components

BG DOT 3 Brake Fluid

PN 850

BG DOT 3 Brake Fluid provides the ultimate high temperature protection and moisture resistance for all DOT 3 disc and drum brake systems.

Brake systems can produce pressure up to 2000 psi. This pressure, along with extreme heat from the friction of braking, cause brake fluid to break down. This compromised brake fluid will boil at a lower temperature leaving air pockets and condensation in the brake system. Water in the brake system causes a myriad of problems such as brake deposits and varnish buildup.

BG DOT 3 Brake Fluid:

• Protects the brake system at any temperature
• Fights moisture
• Provides excellent rust protection
• Contains exceptional dryness and heavy duty additives, making this product an effective brake system cleaner

BG PF7 Brake Service System

PN PF7

BG PF7 Brake Service System quickly and effectively removes oxidized and corrosive brake fluid, replacing it with new fluid. The exchange is performed in minutes in a contained unit. No hassle. No mess.

Brakes work by creating friction to slow and stop a vehicle. This friction creates a substantial amount of heat, which in turn causes rapid oxidation of brake fluid. Deposits form in the brake system causing serious brake system malfunction, which compromises the vehicle’s safety.

BG PF7 Brake Service System:

• Exchanges oxidized brake fluid with new brake fluid quickly and efficiently
• Visual indicator that tells the technician when it needs to be refilled
• Includes a 5-gallon container that collects oxidized fluid

BG Brake Fluid Service Wichita

Your automotive brake pads along with the fluid that provides the pressure to the brake pads need maintenance and monitoring. Brake alone should be examined at least once a year for the safety of you and your car. Remember, the brake fluid can easily be checked at every oil change, for copper build up.

Brake Parts Definitions

Master Cylinder – Convert non-hydraulic pressure (your foot) to hydraulic pressure

Calipers – Squeeze a piston which squeezes brake pads against the rotor

Brake Pads – Press against the rotor, causing the wheel to stop

Brake Lines –Brake fluid travels through these from master cylinder to wheels

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) – Rapidly pumps the brakes to prevent wheel lock up

Brake Fluid – Provides the force to activate the braking unit at each wheel

Steps of the BG Brake Service

1.      Connect the equipment to shop air

2.      Use suction wand to remove all old fluid from the master cylinder reservoir

3.      Attach master cylinder reservoir adaptor

4.      BG Brake Fluid is sent through the master cylinder to each wheel

5.      Remove old fluid w/ contaminants from each of the wheel cylinders

6.      Release the pressure from the master cylinder

7.      Remove all equipment and test-drive the vehicle
