Hi Jeff ,

Thank you for the input, i changed my brake fluid about 6 months ago and I didn't know that it's best to replace it yearly.

What needs to be changed for a switch to DOT 5 Silicon ??? If i am replacing the bomb and the master cylinder is it enough for the cnversion or i have to get new hoses/lines etc....? Any changes in performance with the Dot 5 ? and what is the changing interval for the dot 5 ?

Thanks in advance.
best regards always
