I like your videos, a lot. I am going on 72, and change the tires on 2 cars, 1 pickup truck, and own a LTV Sprinter RV. I was thinking also that I was getting to old for changing wheels and tires 2 times a year (Canada, winter and summer wheels...). I purchased a wheel dolly. Wow, my back is soooo grateful. Air jack, wheel dolly, compressor gun. Good for a at least 20 more years. Do yourself a favor. And keep making videos.

Thanks for the idea. I used to have to switch to winter tires when i lived in upstate New York.

I like a 3 year replacement interval.

[@ontheroadwithron2432]

That works also. Diy?

[@youtoobe169]

@@ontheroadwithron2432 Yes. I used the pressurized bleeder I got from mercedesource. Makes the job really easy for one person. You pressurize the reservoir with fluid in the tank and when you open the bleeder it just pushes the new fluid through.

Brake usage has little bearing on how often brake fluid should be changed. The hydroscopic nature of brake fluid suggests that water will certainly enter the system, whether the vehicle is moving or not. When it does, it will corrode iron components, like caliper pistons, leading to potential brake degradation. Follow factory recommendations to maintain brake health.

Yes thats true. I mentioned it in ref to brake glazing. That’s why I tested the fluid.
