Mine leaks about a quarter-quart of Redline every 5K miles or so. I can live 
with it.

I tried Redline at one point and the gearbox leaked profusely. Changed back to 
30wtnd and now only have the typical drips. 

Moral to the story: all our cars are different so what works for one may not 
work for others.
