    checking brake fluid

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Maybe a dumb question, but does anyone have any hints for checking brake fluid level without removing the battery/interior filter/ECU cover?
    Owner's manual says to just look, but the reservoir is sitting too low. And I can't see the fluid anyway, even if I pop the battery cover and stick a light in there..

    thanks

    Pull back the weather strip, grab the cover and pick it up. Do you have a good mechanic?

    Don't need a mechanic for this, just hoping to save a few minutes and wear/tear on the weather stripping.

    Thanks for the answer.
