Okay, so it's been almost three months since my brake light came on the dashboard and it was right the very next day I brought the car to the dealership for my 25K maintenance. I called Nissan right away and asked if they forgot to check something because they marked all of the boxes on the work order form that they handed me. I was told to just bring it back in and that they will take a look at it.

Something came up the day I was supposed to take the car to the place and being Ms. Procastinator that I am, I waited 3K miles later to finally ask my friend Gwap (since he's driving the same car) if it was my brake pads or if I just need to put more brake fluid. So I popped the hood open and I didn't even know what the hell I was looking at. To be perfectly honest with you guys, I thought it looked scary. It looks like a big tangled mess to me. Hoses hooked up everywhere.

I was hoping to see an icon or a box marked brake fluid but I didn't see one. There were two covered compartments and I lifted the bigger one first. I know what a battery looks like and I know that was it. Then I proceeded to the other one and I was happy to see the cap marked brake fluid blah..blah..blah..So I called gwap again and asked him what was I supposed to do. So he told me to check if the fluid is below the min line and yes it was.

Drove to the nearest gas station and grabbed the first plastic bottle of brake fluid that laid my eyes on. Popped that hood open again, dumped the fluid in, crossed my fingers before starting the ignition. I inserted the key in and it was such a relief to see that the annoying red light is no longer on.

Now I have another problem... The wishbone indicator (meaning one of my tire pressure's low) is on. The reader displays F: 34/34 R: 26/34 .. I know
it's my right rear tire and I'm thinking of inflating it myself.

My question is, how do I know if I already put enough air? I'm trying to learn all these things. So please, aside from adding more brake fluid to checking tire pressure, what other things do I need to know? I'm sure that female tsikoteers could learn a thing or two.

But do not expect me to jack the car up and change tires anytime soon.. that's a very manly thing to do.
