AP racing told me not to use dot5 on my ap setup (mc and slave) as it will wear out the seals.

Dot 5.1 should be ok though if it's the silicon fluid you need to avoid as 5.1 is glycol based same as dot 4

It said in the instructions specifically not to use dot5.1 (i meant dot5.1 when writing dot5), this is for AP Racing slave cylinders - but I contacted them regarding this and they said it would damage the seals so I just agreed.
