Ermm... Isn't Dot 5 silicone?

If so it's not hydrophyllic. Dot 4 and the other glycol-based brake fluids are
Hydrophyllic and will absorb water.

You may want to check if the PDWA valve is installed in the correct direction.
If it's in backwards it could be causing your symptoms (don't ask me how I
know)
