I did a fresh fluid change in my bx2230. When I put new sudt2 in, I noticed it's over top fill line on district. Should I drain some out or will it be ok to overfill a bit. It can't be that much more bc I was trying to be careful and check while filling.

My BX1880 comes overfilled from the dealer every time they fix a leak. Now is the third time. I am hoping that I run out of leaks before I run out of warranty.

When you say over filled............... 1/8"??? 1/4"???? or more???? A smidge will be ok on level ground - but I would not get too overfilled

Run it some and then check it again, could have an air lock in there. But if it is WAY over the line retrace your steps and see what you did,, shouldnt be any thing to get nuts over

It's right where the flat part of the dipstick turns round. I can just drain a bit, just don't want to if i dont have to
