if your brake fluid is low, you probably need to replace your brake pads. If your pads are good and you fluid is low, you have a leak somewhere. By replacing your pads, the brake fluid level will rise to the proper level. If you add fluid now, then replace your pads, brake fluid will leak out the top of your fluid reservoir and most likely eat the paint off what ever it spills on. Brake fluid and car paint DO NOT MIX.

What can you do if you accidentally mix silicone brake fluid with regular brake fluid?
If you accidentally mix silicone brake fluid (such as DOT 5) with regular brake fluid (like DOT 3, 4, or 5.1), the best course of action is to completely flush the brake system. This ensures the incompatible fluids do not compromise braking performance. You should replace all brake fluid with the appropriate type for your vehicle and check for any potential damage to rubber components, as the mixture can cause corrosion or degradation. It's advisable to consult a professional mechanic for proper servicing.
