Title: Brake fluid leak?
Post by: Kalpsn2000 on June 13, 2011, 10:26:22 am

About a month ago I got a brake fluid low warning and at the time I thought I may as well replace the rear pads (as they looked worn) and then top up the fluid.

But over the past few days the warning has come back :sad1:

I guess I must have a brake fluid leak somewhere?

What are the common places to check?

I'd check around the the flexy hoses get someone to press the brake and have a look mate

Are these connected to the reservoir?
