    Yup, you guys were right. The brake fluid is low. What type do you guys recommend? Is it ok to mix fluid brands? I've never had to do this before... lol

    Thanks!

    WARNING, WARNING, WARNING

    If you top off the reservoir, the next time you change the brake pads and compress the pistons in the caliper's, you will pump paint eating brake fluid all over the engine compartment. The reservoir fluid level will go down as the pads wear, this is normal

    So my pads still have quite a bit of life on them, so I went ahead and topped off the fluid. Hope that stops that light from staying on.
