What toAdd When you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake fluid -- such as Delco Supreme 11 (GM P r No. at 1052535). Use new brake fluid from a sealed container only, and always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap before removing it. @ Brake Wear Your Chevrolet has front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. Disc brake pads have built-in wear indicators that make a high-pitched warning sound when the brake pads are worn and new pads are needed. The sound may come and or go be heard al the time your vehicle is moving (except when l you are pushing on the brake pedal firmly). NOTICE: Don't let someoneput in thewrong kind of fluid. For example, just a few drops of mineral-based oil, such as engine oil, in your brakesystem candamage brake system parts so badly that they'll have tobe replaced. Brake fluid can damage paint, so be careful not to spill brake fluidon yourvehicle. If you do, wash it off immediately. See "Appearance Care" in the Index. NOTICE: Continuing to drive with worn-out brake pads could result in costly brake repair. 6-26
