Mazda CX-3: Owner Maintenance / Brake/Clutch Fluid

Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid Level

WARNING

If the brake/clutch fluid level is low, have the brakes inspected: A low brake/clutch fluid level is dangerous. A low level could indicate brake lining wear or a brake system leak which could cause the brakes to fail and lead to an accident.

The brakes and clutch draw fluid from the same reservoir.

Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir regularly. It should be kept between the MAX and MIN lines.

The level normally drops with accumulated distance, a condition associated with wear of brake and clutch linings. If it is excessively low, have the brake/clutch system inspected by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
