First, as the oil does not lubricate the sealed IMS bearing, no particualr brand or weight of oil is any better or worse than another in protecting you from IMS failure.....
Second, even though Redline is expensive, it has no ACEA ratings. I would not use it in an M96 for that reason alone.................
