as stated in my previous mail, i know there is no warranty.
but will
Castrol/Girling LMA synthetic fluid still take the paint off the parts it
touches? 
i think yes.
also why would you not produce "new" spec parts.
wont a
new spec part work for all fluiffs?
and as the rubber parts are hidden well
away from the eye, one would not notice even if one where smart enough to be
able to tell the difference.

I have previously checked with TRW, the current manufacturer of
Girling
cylinders about the silicone issue.  There response was that the
cylinders are
designed to meet OE spec's which call for non-silicone fluid. 
They therefore
will not warranty a failure if non-spec fluid is used.
Also
Castrol/Girling LMA fluid is a synthetic fluid - always has been.  They
only
recently started putting that on the bottles - I checked on that too.
