Hi all,

I'm upgrading my 280E's brakes to 2nd Gen W126 brakes, braided hoses, and new copper pipes.
I'm thinking of refilling the system with either DOT 5, or 5.1 brake fluid.

My question is, 1 of these is silicone based, the other isn't, so is silicone based brake fluid safe to use in a non-ABS W123?

Cheers Frank.
