Correct brake fluid level?
Hi,
I just had my brake fluid flushed at the dealer, and was told I have a slight leak in the [power steering] system. For that reason I checked the level today so I had a point of reference so I would know when to top if off (before having the repair done).
The manual doesn't explicitly state what the correct brake fluid level is. My cap has a "dipstick" of sorts with two discreet lines. The fluid is reading at halfway up lowest line.
Where's the sweet spot?
Thanks!

My mistake: My original post should have read, brake fluid flushed at the dealer, and was told I have a slight leak in the power steering system.
I'm getting a few drips a week.

Either I'm confused or you are. I think you have the pwr strg reservoir confused with the brake fluid reservoir. The pwr strg system has a dipstick in the cap. The brake fluid res. has max/min marks. Suggest you read your owners manual closely for answers and get back to us once all is clear.
