Method for estimating water content of brake fluid in a brake system (200) comprising brake calipers (202a-d) and a brake fluid container (204), the brake calipers and the container each comprising a sensor (208, 210a-d) configured to detect a water content of the brake fluid, the method comprising: arranging (100) the brake system in a controlled environment; for a predetermined time period, exposing (102) the brake system to a controlled temperature and humidity such that an increase in water content in the brake fluid is accelerated; determining (104) the water content of the brake fluid in the brake fluid container and in each brake caliper as a function of time; and based on the determined water content as a function of time, establishing (106) a model describing the relation between the water content of brake fluid in a brake caliper and the water content in the brake fluid in the brake fluid container.
