You have 20k miles on her BUT it is a 2001 car. Id assume that your fluids are 4 years old. I would replace it considering the time factor. The Brake Fluid composition changes overtime with temperature, time, water contamination which may affect its performance...Another classic example of added TLC vs. recommended service interval.
