I run redline ATF in my T56.
So... I call this Mercedes dealer and ask if they stock the 5w30 ESP. They say, YES, I ask the list price, good deal so I drive there after class... 10 miles. I get there and talk to the same guy, say I'm here for the 5w30 ESP, he says oh ya, but you mean 5w40, I say no 5w30, he says 5w40. I say... no, 5w30. He says diesel right? It's 5w40. No you stupid fuck! (I didn't say that part) Then he proceeds to tell me that he doesn't have the 5w30... Thanks for assuming to know what I need better than I do you prick!
...Think I'm going with Amsoil. I'm just going to double check the specs in my owners manual and make sure it meets the criteria.
Chuck, if I buy the $10 membership I get it at 'wholesale price' for 6 months. It's like $77 before shipping and tax for 10 quarts. I doubt I'll get it much cheaper than that. It's like $115 shipped with the filter and tax.
