This is the inner axle seal on a customer’s front diff; customer had a complaint about oil leakage after having work completed by another mechanic - this is what Ben found when he pulled it all apart.

A reminder to change/ check your brake fluid regularly. Clean brake fluid helps with your braking efficiency and helps with transferring your physical force from your foot on the pedal to the actual pads / shoes.

Dirty brake fluid could be a result of contamination with moisture or microscopic debris from heat cycles. Which could also cause internal corrosion.

 Did you know that Brake fluid is HYGROSCOPIC meaning they readily absorb and retain moisture from the air, most DOT 3, DOT4 and DOT 5.1 are highly hygroscopic.
 DOT 5 brake fluid is silicone based and is HYDROPHOBIC (water resistant). DOT 5 generally is not suitable for vehicles with ABS and cannot be mixed with DOT 3, DOT 4 or DOT 5.1
