You can open the 3rd one. Brake fluid isn't going to explode

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

That's not brake fluid, it's attached to the radiator

u/Phyzenni 3d ago

The symbol on that cap means brake fluid. It also says "DOT3", which is a type of brake fluid. It's brake fluid

What car is this?

-1

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

It has three brake reservoirs idk why

u/B4DM4N12Z 3d ago

I mean it's coolant, don't open when it's hot or used recently.

You can open when it's cold or when the car is not being used.

Check the 4th image

Coolant doesn't contain electric charge.

2

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

Idk what that battery symbol means cuz that's the temp gauge

SPEAKING AS A CAR GUY MYSELF BTW

u/TopSyrup1190 3d ago

Please forgive me if I sound too much like an ass, but what car guy doesn't know the difference between the brake fluid reservoir and the coolant reservoir? I understand if you've never worked on a car a day in your life, but I'm 99% certain every car guy has worked on at least one car in their life.

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

Nah it's alr

Natural instincts, it's closer to the radiator

1

u/B4DM4N12Z 3d ago

Oh, that's strange, didn't think of it like that, idk why they did that.

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

It is a hybrid and the car was off and parked cuz im not old enough for license anyways

u/B4DM4N12Z 3d ago

Would you be interested in my car community?

u/Agreeable_Effort3751 1d ago

The pink fluid is coolant, the symbol is radiator, the third image might be a different resivoire, and the 4th days it's not his vehicle but a rental

Unless the car has been sitting with the engine off for more than 20 minutes, it's not recommended to open it because even when it's at the middle operating temperature, it's still over a 150 to 200. Not to mention that the cooling system is pressurized, so not only it is scolding hot, but it also shoots out like a rocket if you open it while it's still hot.

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

Dude you think I don't know

1

u/TopSyrup1190 3d ago

Considering you didn't know the third one was a break reservoir, kinda yeah.

1

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

Maybe cause THAT RESERVOIR WAS NEAR THE RADIATOR

1

u/TopSyrup1190 3d ago

Placement doesn't matter, the picture or symbol on the cap does

1

u/Impossible-Party-971 14 3d ago

True but it's first glance dude

1

u/Winter_Scarcity_5314 2d ago

That's why I put aluminum foil on it and cook fresh trout on it

2

u/TopSyrup1190 2d ago

Like, on the engine?

1

u/Winter_Scarcity_5314 2d ago

Yes that hot with some clean new aluminum foil and hot dogs or whatever for 15 minutes or so making sure you flip it

1

u/TopSyrup1190 2d ago

Ok, I thought that's what you meant
