Mitsubishi Xpander Brake Fluid Malaysia
Xpander uses DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid — DOT 4 recommended for Malaysia's traffic conditions. Change every 2 years regardless of mileage; moisture absorption lowers boiling point and causes spongy pedal. On older Xpander units, also inspect rubber brake hoses for cracking. Full flush preferred over topping up.
Xpander Brake Fluid
- DOT 3 or DOT 4 — check specification on reservoir cap
- Replace every 2 years — humidity in Malaysia causes rapid moisture absorption
- Soft/spongy brake pedal = air in system or moisture-saturated fluid
- Flush brake fluid as part of 40,000 km scheduled service
