Red Line MT-LV is a full-synthetic ester-based lubricantformulated for manual transmissions and front-wheel-drive transaxles. Itsshear-stable chemistry maintains consistent viscosity across a wide temperaturerange, reducing gear noise and improving shift quality.   Red Line has introduced this middle-weight oil for manual andSMG transmissions that slots in between an ATF D4 and MTL. In the Red Lineproduct range, it's closest to the OE BMW LT-2 and LT-3 that is becoming harderto source. This fluid is alsoused in the xDrive all-wheel drive transfer case on many modern BMW models. The fluid is engineered to deliver an optimal synchronizercoefficient of friction, ensuring quick, crisp...

Red Line Fluid Recommendations for Honda Civic Type R (K20C1)       Engine Oil The engine requires 5.4 litres (5.7 quarts) when changed with the oil filter Red Line 5W-30 For high performance street use. Red Line 0W-20 Synthetic Racing Oil Track use only Optimized for modern turbocharged engines, this full-ester blend maintains film thickness at high RPM and resists shear under boost. • Oil Change Interval 8,000–12,000 km under spirited driving or track use; 12,000 – 15,000 km for street only. • Why Red Line? Superior ester base resists heat-soak, minimizes oxidation, and cushions high-frequency shock loading. •...

Differences Between Polyol Ester Chemistry and PAO (Polyalphaolefin) Synthetics and Conventional Mineral Oils. Discover the Superior Performance of Red Line Oil!   Molecular Structure Polyol esters are synthesized by reacting multifunctional alcohols (polyols) with fatty or dibasic acids, forming molecules with multiple ester linkages (–COO–). The presence of oxygen in these linkages imparts polarity to the molecules, ensuring superior performance. PAO (polyalphaolefin) synthetics are made by polymerizing α-olefin monomers into highly branched hydrocarbons. They contain no oxygen and are essentially nonpolar, hydrocarbon-only structures. Conventional mineral oils are refined from crude petroleum and contain a mixture of hydrocarbons along with performance...
