    Great news. Red Line MTL at $14 per liter is roughly a third of the $73.50 per half gallon from the dealer! And I don't even have to supply my own milk jug...

    I'm not a cheapskate when it comes to maintaining the MINI, but Red Line makes top notch products, it's easier to get, and a LOT less expensive. Come to think of it, the Powerflex bushings are better and cheaper when the life expectancy is factored in. The math is even more compelling for those who pay a shop for installing them.

    use the Redline you will like it-been using it in my 05 lsd mcs since 07, and we put it in every 5 and 6 speed MINI that comes in for a change up.

    Redline MTL is playing nicely with all the cogs, widgets & lsd in my MINIs box o gears. :)
