I was bleeding as per the Shimano process.
I pulled on the lever with a bleed block inserted at the caliper end and fluid dumped out of the lever resevoir (from the round bit at the end which looks like it may be a pressure valve?).
Is my lever borked or can I fix it?
For info I did refill the system close the ports etc to check and it was still leaking at the lever.
Over 2 yrs so warranty claim not an option.
Thanks for an input.
I've had this happen to mine when I overfilled it.
Didn't leak again and worked fine.
Kilksy I was hoping that was the issue but unfortunately as per above refilled and tested but fluid continued to leak from the lever resevoir.
Did you have the funnel attached?

When I change the fluid on mine I pump through the old dirty oil into this, then empty it and then pump through some more til it runs clear.
Then pull lever a few times. Remove funnel and insert cap back in. If you have over filled it will leak out the over fill.
Hope that makes sense. I'm sure someone will vine along and correct my poor explanation
