It's more of a case can you not afford to? I had a car where the pads were not replaced soon enough and as a result scored the discs so instead of just replacing a set of pads, it was discs and pads and at a most inconvenient time when it was the last things I wanted to be doing. My understanding is that the fluid level at Max when set for new pads, results in the fluid level being on Min when the pads are worn out so that new pads mean that the level comes back to max. Change the pads! David.
