Mazda 3 Owners Manual: Brake/Clutch Fluid
Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid Level
| WARNING
If the brake/clutch fl uid level is low, have
the brakes inspected:
A low brake/clutch fl uid 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.
