Correct clutch fluid?

[HowardBJr]

What is the correct fluid for the clutch master cylinder? The cap on the reservoir of my 2003 SRT-10 says to use only DOT 3, my owner manual doesn’t list the type of fluid and the service manual on pages 6-6 and 6-7 says to use only DOT 4 or you "will cause the system to malfunction."

Thanks.

DOT 4 has a higher boiling point then DOT 3 and the cap on the clutch master has been around for many years! That's why it says DOT 3.
3 & 4 are compatible but use DOT4!

DOT 4 it is. Thanks.

Synthetic is better. Higher boiling temp. Motul 600 or Neo works best for me.
