I have a brake fluid warning light in my Peugeot 306 but the brakes feel fine. What's wrong with it?
I have a warning light on my 1996 Peugeot 306 diesel turbo. I know that the warning light indicates a low brake fluid level. When I first found the problem about a month ago, I just filled it up and then a week later I got the warning light again. I did the same, filled it, and a week or two later the light came back on. I haven't actually been able to find a leak around the car, and the brakes feel fine.

The reason for this warning light can be a trapped cable under the seat. The same thing happened to me years ago in a Citroen ZX, which is the same underneath as the 306.
