Pino low brake fluid level

I am experiencing an issue with my 2010 Nissan Pino (gasoline engine). The brake fluid level is low, and I'm getting strange feedback from the brake pedal. I've checked for obvious leaks around the wheels, but haven't spotted anything. Any ideas?

Hey, I had something similar happen on my Pino. Check your brake lines carefully. They can corrode, and you might not see fluid dripping right away. Has the warning light come on?

Thanks for the tip! I'll check the brake lines more thoroughly. Did you notice any other symptoms besides the pedal feel?

Yeah, the pedal was spongy and I could feel it travel way further than normal. I eventually took it to a workshop - turned out the lines were almost gone, and the brakes were worn anyway so changed them too.

Appreciate the insight, this is very helpful. I'll get it checked by a professional to be on the safe side, especially regarding the brake lines! It turned out to be worn brakes. Repair cost: 480€
