The 2011 BMW 328i requires dot 4 brake fluid. Refreshing the brake fluid in a vehicle can be a straightforward task, depending on whether you need to bleed the brakes. If you only need to top up the fluid, locate the intake port beneath the car's hood, unscrew the cap, and observe the MIN and FULL indicators on the container. Fill the container between these markers, closer to the FULL line, before screwing the cap back on. Alternatively, if bleeding the brakes is necessary, begin by using a jack to raise the car off the ground and removing the tires. Begin at the back of the car, locate the bleeder valve on the wheel, attach a rubber tube, and open the valve. Step inside the car, press down on the brake pedal slowly, release, and repeat. Watch as the fluid flows into a bucket through the tube. Continue this process until no more fluid emerges, then proceed to the next tire. Repeat for all wheels, reinstall the tires, and refill the brakes as needed.
