I'm coming up to my second year service which if I'm right means the brake & clutch fluid need to be changed.

I know the dealerships don't do it but I have my service done elsewhere (as I don't trust the dealer) so to get my lifetime warranty reactivated would I really need to change the brake fluid?

Or should I just buy a bottle of it and get my mechanic to tick it as done.

Also would doing this disable the coolant temp that I see in the display or is this something else?

Thanks

Also do these just sit between the pipes and the actual tanks themselves or ar

right then,
my 1.6 petrol tourer has developed a leak from the transmission cooler pipe at the radiator end.
I have a new (genuine) connector/seal to fit, the pipe is NLA
but there will be an amount of oil lost during the remove/refit process plus the unknown quantity already lost.

rather than top up the fluid, I guess it would be better to change the fluid,

I've read the workshop manual instructions online which seems fairly straightforward until the part where it says
