No one has installed new brake pads- pushed the piston back in- and had excess brake fluid (overflowing) in the brake resevoir?
Making any headway here?

nope never had that issue. i've replaced my pads 3 times (front and rears) and never overflowed. infact, i've never had to refill my reservior ever (except bleeding brakes).

might just be you.
hm.
