Caution: Observe the rules for handling brake fluid described in Section Brake Fluid Replacement.
The pipelines of the brake system communicate the master brake cylinder with the four wheel cylinders. The connection between the rigid and moving parts of the brake system, for example, between the calipers, is carried out by flexible high-pressure hoses. If there is visible damage, the latter must be replaced.
Caution: Do not allow brake hoses to come into contact with oil or fuel, and do not paint or coat them with an underbody rust preventative.
Safety note
If one of the chambers of the brake fluid reservoir is completely empty (e.g. if there is a leak in the brake system or if you forgot to add fluid to the reservoir when bleeding), air is sucked into the system, which enters the ABS pump. In this case, the air from the brake system must be removed at the service station using a special device.
