Toyota mainteinance program reguires brake fluid change every 30K km's !
Just called my local Toyota service ! After 12y your tester shows 1% water on fluid .... yep .. looks to be one more MUST have tester  When brake fluid is old soaked and dirty enough it also ruins piston sealsfrom calipers and mastercylinders ! KTM brakes tilt with less than 6y old fluid ! |

 Tester shows LES THAN 1%. I also calibrated the tester by mixing 200 ml fresh fluid with 5 ml water. Tester read 2%. Finally you can change your own brake fluid for $5. Dealer gets $99. Clearly they have incentive to talk you into it.
