The price for changing the brake fluid can vary from $5 to $15, depending on the brand and quality of the fluid. It is recommended by the factory guidelines to have this service done every 30,000 miles. Taking your car to an auto repair shop for this service can cost between $80 and $120, which includes labor and materials.
