Does anybody know which "DOT" brake fluid comes stock in the 07 STI's? The owners manual does not say and the cap on the resivor says, "use dot 3 only". The dealer said it has dot 4, but I am now supicious.

For the street, any name brand DOT 3, 4, or 5.1 will be fine to mix with stock.

I am by all means not an expert, but isn't there risk with mixing dot 3 with dot 4?

No not at all. The only one you can't mix is DOT 5, silicone based fluid.

3,4, and 5.1 are 100% aok to mix.
