Rear differential fluid changed
Once this service has never been done in the car, I decided to change
the fluid with fresh (Red line 75/90). I ordered 3quarts from Bavauto.com and said why not sharing a few pics with some viewers. All you need as tools is a: 14mm hex whatever how they called it, any Fluid pump will do the tric and a rachet. The car is a 01 X5 4.4i with 124,813 mileages and this service has never been done in the past. By the way, removing the fill plug/drain plug was easy as helllllll If all services was that easy to access, mechanic shop would have strangled to death to survive. However I'm glad and confident with the new fluid changed because compare to the Old dirty brown fluid that came out from the differential, with the fresh red line yellow color that being filled-up tells it all. |

Yeah, it needed it. The stuff that came out looks like coffee w/ cream. Shot/spent fluid!

Yup, there is special BMW Transfer Case Fluid that you should use. You also need to program the computer to reset the parameters that you flushed the fluid.

+1, but only applies to x-drive units in 2004-2006 model years.
