    Anyone else find the brake res. a little more challenging to check and see what the fluid level is at? I find the its not dark enough to see the level is on the side and can't see in the top either too easily.

    I just got a used 17 CM Ltd 4x4(49k miles) and brakes work fine. Just looking at the engine and noticed the brake fluid reservoir. Looks empty or not? can't tell. Did you figure this out?
