Brake Fluid on Pads...

[Punkstig]

It's not necessary to have the fluid any where near the max line whilst bleeding the system, so once it has been bled push the pistons back in then fill to the max level, no need to make any guesses for fluid level that way!

Who said you did?.

Instead of getting defensive about this try re-reading as if two people are agreeing on this method and the additional piece of advice is instead of leaving a little gap below the max line just don't fill anywhere near it!
