Brake fluid, Volvo

Volvo brake fluid is Volvo Cars' only tested and approved product. Volvo brake fluid should not be mixed with other unknown brake fluids. The brake fluid has low viscosity at low temperatures, resulting in fast response and increased safety in cars with ABS and ESP systems. The product also protects very well against corrosion in the sealed brake system.

Brake fluid is hygroscopic (moisture absorbing). To ensure that the brake fluid does not absorb moisture during transport and storage, the fluid is supplied in a sealed plastic canister filled at the top with nitrogen gas.

Always keep the brake fluid in this container and always seal it tightly. An opened container should be made up within two months.
