Is the ABS reservoir the same as that used for the Master Brake Cylinder?

uhh......Yeah chas raises a good question cause thats what I was about to ask.

I also notice at times my ABS light comes on as well.
Say if im driving and coming to a stop and keep my foot on the brake. A couple of times I would drive right into a hugh fricken pot hole or something and the ABS would come on.
All I do is turn off the car for a bit and once i start her up. Light is off.

is there a separate ABS reservior on 6th gen accords?

ABS sensors on Accords are very sensitive, its normal for it to come on after you drive over a big pothole.

Early ABS systems had their own fluid reservoir. In about '98 they changed over to a smaller system that doesn't have it's own reservoir. Our '98 Accord has the new kind. '95 Integra has the old kind.

Not only the reservoir is different... The list of trouble codes is different, so be careful when you look up what the code means.
