Stay away from DOT 5, it's silicone based, but DOT 5.1 is okay, because it synthetic based. DOT. 3&4 are also fine.

The difference between DOT 3,4,&5.1 are the boiling points. If your hard on the brakes, that increases the temperature, I also recommend flush and fill with new brake fluid, also I'd go with 5.1DOT

This is the one I use
