2005 Yukon SLT- Brake Fluid Change

[Dantheman-2003]

Any issues on this model Yukon changing brake fluid? I read somewhere about ABS and sensor issue when changing brake fluid out.
Thoughts?

Thanks!

last year I had my brake fluid flushed / used OEM style refill.

No point to change the type.

You’ll have more issues in the long run if you Don’t change it. Water contamination and corrosion, boiling under heat stress.

Use DOT 4.

Nope. Just don't run the master dry

If you don't have traction control, there's a central rear line that branches at the axle. That is to say, first rear wheel will take a while to get clean fluid. Second rear wheel will happen fairly quickly. So no, it's not just you


You'll need about 32oz to do it.

16 to drain/refill the reservoir before you start. And another 16 to get clean fluid on all 4 corners

Just do a little at a time and keep checking to make sure the master is t getting low
