As long as it's not DOT 5, silicone, brake fluid in the car, you can
flush and refill with DOT 4. If it is DOT5, you must stay DOT5. SO
ends all I know about brake fluid :)
There are some others, but these are the common 2.
As always, be careful of the paint. I split a couple heavy garbage bags
and cover EVERYTHING the fluid might get on.

I want to flush the brakes on my SRL. And I want to put the best
recommended fluid back in. I do not know what fluid is currently in the
brake system. I may be able to find out if I can find the phone number
for the previous owner.
My questions are these:
What is the best way to completely flush the entire brake system?
And
Does it matter what fluid I put back in if I do not know what is
currently in the system? I would hate to put in fresh and find out it is
not compatible with any possible remnants of the old fluid.
