Re: Soft brakes and spongy feel... diagnosis?
There's two things that 'do for' brake fluid , that's moisture (Brake Fluid is hygroscopic, it attracts moisture from the atmosphere if subjected to open air: loose brake fluid lid or opened bottle of it).. and 'damage' from boiling due to braking at the front calipers/rear cylinders as said.
They will check it for water content with some test kit, but it doesn't tell you what the fluid is like near the calipers, Only a bleed would do that.
s the brake fluid condition actually changed during the official Smart/Mercedes-Benz inspections? Or do they just peer at the level measures to see that the volume is acceptable?
