I dont think that our brake system is compatible with DOT 5.1
When i changed my Brake fluid, i just went with Honda DOT 3

Motul Dot 5.1 would work. I have Motul Dot5.1 in my accord and it works great and i'm sure that the CL's brake system is the same (except for some minor differences). Dot 5.1 is a non-silicon based fluid. Not to be confused with Dot 5.0 (silicon based fluid).

If I did something wrong, I'm sure my car would not be working right now.
