If I remember correctly Castrol SRF is DOT5 = SILICONE brake fluid.

Silicone brake fluid is not compatible with regular brake fluid which is glycol-ether based.

They react when mixed and can damage all rubber seals within the brake system.

To switch to (or from) Silicone brake fluid it is recommended to overhaul every component within the brake system and flush all the lines.
