My handbrake light comes on under hard breaking, I know it usualy means low fluid but it's topped right up

256mm or 288 brakes? It's all the fluid going through the system and also rushing forward in the reservoir, mine used to do it too.

236 vented most likely, I wouldn't worry about it unless you're losing fluid, start worrying when it comes on before you start braking

happened to me on brand new discs and pads, seriously it's quite normal on uprated setups undeer heavy braking, 288's probably do it constantly
