dot 4 is what you need. dont get anything else..

1L bottle will last you a while.. just dont leave the cap off.

I use this stuff..

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BRAKE-FLUID-DOT-4-SYNTHETIC-BASED-300ml_W0QQitemZ270471580232QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item3ef95cca48

can be found cheaper at motor factors. and 330ml would fill the both brakes from empty. if yo wanna flush the old stuff out then syringe it out, refill master cylinder/resvoir, pump it through, then bleed pushing the fluid in through the caliper end..

its called reverse bleeding or something.. works for me..
