Hi, I have a booked a full mobile car service with RAC. I would like to know whether the full service include brake fluid change. The description says fuel change, but does not mentions about brake fluid specifically. Has anyone done a full mobile car service recently with RAC?

I have never heard of a brake fluid change being included in a routine service. It is normally recommended every 2-3 years,, and is either (1) offered and charged for as an extra or (2) included in the manufacturer's service schedule, and priced accordingly.

Also, you mentioned "fuel change". Did you mean "fuel filter change "?

I have a service contract with my local Ford Dealer and when my car goes in for its annual visit, they invariably ask me if I want a brake fluid change. I have owned this car for nine years and had the fluid changed twice which I think is sufficient.

All filters and oil are included in the contract.

Check out brake fluid testers. I have changed my brake fluid twice in the last four years because of water content exceeding 4%. Brake fluid does degrade over time because of its attraction to water.
