Checking the Front Brake Fluid

Front brake fluid reservoir

LOWER level mark

  • Place your vehicle in an upright position on a firm, level surface.
  • Check that brake fluid reservoir is horizontal and that the fluid level is above the LOWER level mark.
  • If the brake fluid level in the reservoir is below the LOWER level mark or the brake lever freeplay becomes excessive, inspect the brake pads for wear.

  • If the brake pads are not worn, you most likely have a leak. Have your vehicle inspected by your authorised dealer.
