Houdini Brake Fluid
Guys,
My fluid is giving me the slip. I topped it off Saturday and had to top it off again Thursday. I'm assuming it's not the lines because the loss is gradual - and I still have plenty of pedal feel. Is there a problem with our calipers? The car has already had one replaced...
Thanks,
Limequat

Honda calipers are leakers when pushed
I've seen a lot of leaky Honda calipers, look for oily stains on one of your calipers on the piston side (might need to remove wheels). I know it sucks but unforunately when one caliper goes bad the rest might need seals also. And a good system wide bleeding to get rid of corrosives in the fluids is always a good idea.

oh yeah don't forget to adjust your rear brakes by solid brake application while rolling backwards several times a week, there is a little gear on the inside of the rear rotor that turns the pads out when you hit the brakes in reverse, lotsa luck with the brake probs!
