2002 W22 Brake Fluid Reservoir Inquiry

Recently I did a brake fluid flush at the calipers of my 2002 Workhorse W22 chassis under my 2003 Holiday Rambler Admiral SE. After topping off the brake fluid, I noted the fluid level was about 1/2" below the top of the reservoir. When I stared, I believe the fluid level was more like about 1" below the top of the reservoir.

I find no "minimum" or "maximum" level indications on the side of the reservoir and wonder if I have over filled it.

Please comment.

I don’t think it will be absolutely critical but if you did no other brake work, it is recommended to maintain the same brake fluid level as before. Fluid level decreases as brake pads wear. I wouldn’t lose sleep over it though, sounds like you’ll be just fine.
