Mercedes-Benz GLE — 刹车油
DOT 4 LV brake fluid. Replace every 2 years. GLE has more brake mass than GLC — brake temperatures are higher in stop-go Malaysian traffic. Degraded fluid's reduced boiling point is a real risk on a heavy SUV that brakes frequently in traffic. Cost at 4M Car Care.
Mercedes DOT 4 LV — Malaysia Brake Fluid
Mercedes-Benz specifies DOT 4 LV (Low Viscosity) brake fluid — critical for BlueEFFICIENCY braking systems that use electro-hydraulic actuation. Regular DOT 4 can be used but is not optimal. Mercedes mandates brake fluid replacement every 2 years regardless of mileage — in Malaysia's humidity this is especially important as moisture absorption lowers the boiling point. Brake fluid flush costs at independent workshops. Never use DOT 5 (silicone) fluid in Mercedes-Benz hydraulic systems.
