I had the brake fluid in my '96 camry changed at 110,000 miles for the first time. The guys at Brake Masters said it was like syrup coming out, and would need changing again soon when it turns dark. It's at
140,000 miles now, and dark again; this time I'll change the fluid myself.I'm guessing that the car is at increased risk for brake line corrosion. How would I know if the lines are leaking? Would I get a warning with less responsive brakes before they fail completely? (The emergency brake is independent of the hydraulic lines, right? Steel cable?)
I'm thinking of keeping the car at least until 200k miles, and am wondering how concerned I should be about the brake lines. So far so good...
