 Our cars are not designed for silicon brake fluid, that would likely be a very bad idea. It is more compressible, doesn't absorb moisture, doesn't seal as well and doesn't have the correct viscosity to work with the ABS system. Use high temp DOT 4 or DOT 5.1, but never DOT 5.

Most people use Motul RBF600, or AP Racing's fluid. Rumor is, Super Blue isnt good enough.
