The problem I have with Redline is the same as with Amsoil, no good local
availability. Royal Purple is supposed to be just as good quality and my local
Car Quest has it. Of course they only carry 10w30 but they'll generally special
order anything I want...

pity about the M1 not showing diesel ratings; i see their website still
shows it as being 'C' rated, but we know how often websites are
out-of-date,...
i don't see it mentioned here very often, but if you don't mind
paying for good oil, what about Redline? i've had good luck with Redline
products in general (including in a turbocharged rotary race car that
used to rapidly coke every other oil we tried), and they have a 15W40
specifically for Diesel they claim is MB 228.3 rated.
