Thanks, Mike. I called back to clarify. You are correct and the service advisor went and spoke with the tech and HE FORGOT to change the front diff fluid. This is the M tech at Century West. He said he completely forgot the new M5 is AWD. Lesson learned - call out everything they need to do so you don't have my experience!!!
