More important than the grade of your brake fluid is the age. When was the last time you've had your brake fluid changed? Depending on who you ask, it typically needs to be changed every 2 - 3 years, but I personally wouldn't go more than 2 for a typical car (even if it doesn't get driven much). And if you've ever had an incident where you boiled your brake fluid -- ie. the pedal sank into the floor with little or no pressure -- you need to replace your brake fluid asap.
Also, I find that at some dealerships' service department, they don't do as thorough a job in bleeding brakes as I'd like.
