Our car uses Dot 3. It says DOT 3 on the lid unless you have an after market cap. You can use Dot 4 in our cars as well im not sure if there is much advantage to it if any.

I have also read DOT 4 is more hygroscopic than DOT 3. I would stick with DOT3 for regular use. A higher BP has benefits on the track.
