What is endangered if, during a brake bleed, the Motiv Bleeder was mistakenly pumped up to 30 psi, and what should I look out for?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Still not much the OP can do about it now.
No unique explicit quoted action; no causal link assigned

Possible to blow a seal, but not too likely. The pressure you put on the system is more than 30lbs. If a seal is blown you should see the leak real quickly.
How long was it at that pressure?
not too long, under a minute. Dharn, when you say more than 30lbs is put on the system, do you mean during hard driving?
finish the bleed, button everything up and watch for any leaks or fluid level.... you should be OK.

Actually the only portion of the braking system that sees pressure is the portion of the system that is pressurized by the brake master cylinder pistion. The brake fluid reservior never sees pressure, unless a pressure bleeder attached. It is not the seals that are at risk, but the reservior which is at risk of splitting. Still not much the OP can do about it now. Had the reservior split he'd know it by now, cause fluid would be leaking. Sincerely, Macster.
