It's a difficult choice really and it much depends on what you have already been using in the system. If you have been using DOT 3, DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 then you should carry on using these. If however you have been using DOT 5 then it can be a little more complex as it won't mix with the other three types of fluid. Have a look at these links and then decide on your best options:
