	No - the RR363 has lubricating properties needed the hydraulic
braking system, especially the pumps used to maintain the high
pressure it uses. You've done the equivalent of running an engine with
cooking oil rather than motor oil for 500 miles. I'd have the system
inspected by someone qualified, with any bills going to your "dealer."
I take it this shop wasn't a RR dealer****p?
