[TR] silicon or regular brake fluic

This borders on a religious discussion, with lots of opinions on both sides.

Personally I love DOT-5 silicone brake fluid.  Not only does it not harm
paint and not degrade over time, it helps preserve the braking system
components so they will last much longer.  With a completely new system, you
could easily go 100,000 miles without having to touch the hydraulics again.

And it will never, ever, do this:
