Brake fluid on CV Boot - Concern?

posted by  someone claiming to be billb on  Wed Nov 27 15:33 CST 2002 [RELATED]

OK, I'll fess up. I was replacing brake pads, and compressing a caliper. I didn't remove enough brake fluid beforehand, and it spilled out of the master cylinder.

OK, I'll fess up some more. It was on our other car, a Honda Odyssey. But it was the Brickboard and prior Volvo repairs that gave me the confidence to tackle the job.

So there's no brake fluid leakage, just ally spilled fluid during a pad replacement.

Thanks for your concern and advice.
