Do I need to flush the brake fluid in my Audi A1?

I just bought a used Audi A1 and I'm not sure if the brake fluid needs to be flushed. How often should I get it done and what are the consequences if I don't?

Yes, it is recommended to flush the brake fluid in your Audi A1 every 2 years or 30,000 miles (whichever comes first). Old and contaminated brake fluid can lead to corrosion and decrease the effectiveness of your brakes.

It's not necessary to flush the brake fluid in your Audi A1 unless you notice any issues with your brakes. However, it's always a good idea to have it checked every time you get an oil change.

Brake fluid should be flushed every 3 years, regardless of mileage, as suggested by Audi. Old brake fluid can absorb moisture and affect the performance of the anti-lock braking system (ABS).
