No, they don't make their own grease. This is something done by specialized companies in the petrochemical industry. DT might specify their grease and even may sell packaged grease with their name on it (like Schwinn used to do with Lubriplate grease) but they don't make grease. I would surely hope that you would get 13K miles out of a DT hub. I would be totally pi$$ed off if I had a hub fail at 13K miles. My current Campy Record hubs have over 75K miles on them and are still going strong.
