Brake System Pressure Differential Valve - Another Critical Component You Need to Understand

Your brake system is far more than pads, rotors, and calipers. Today we're continuing our look at the hydraulic side of the braking system, focusing on the pressure differential valve and the critical job it performs when you put your foot on the brake pedal.

We're talking about how hydraulic pressure is distributed through the system, why the rear brakes need to begin doing their job as the vehicle's weight transfers forward, and what can happen when that system doesn't operate properly.

And we're also talking about something the "maintenance - free" crowd doesn't always want to discuss: brake fluid doesn't last forever.

Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture. Years of heating and cooling can contaminate the fluid and contribute to corrosion and problems throughout the hydraulic system. That's why I recommend flushing the brake system every 24 months rather than believing in some mysterious "lifetime" fluid.

We've covered the brake booster, master cylinder, brake lines and hydraulic components, and we're still working our way toward the mechanical side of the system.

The bottom line hasn't changed: That vehicle is your money. You bought it. Now take charge of maintaining it.

Because if you can't stop or steer it, let me tell you something - nothing else is going to matter.

Turn the radio up and scream - you're going into the rhubarb! 🌿😂

And don't forget, we're continuing the brake - system series with more real - world information designed to help you understand what it does, where it works, how it fails and what you can do about it.
