Hey everyone -

I just got back from a oil change at my local BMW dealer and they spotted what appears to be a wet area/slight leak around the transfer case.

I have an appointment to bring it back next week to have it taken care of but trying to get some information if anyone has seen this before?

The vehicle is a 2023 with around 5500 miles so I'm surprised to see this.

Attaching a picture from the tech's video for reference.

Change a new front differential oil seal and it will be fine. Oil leakage often happends on some M5s including my M5 lci and my friends'. Quite normal for a German V8 vehicles, too hot for rubber parts. Judging by the picture, your leakage is very slight you can even ingnore it and keep driving for months to check if it leaks more.

Thanks for the help, they mentioned it could just be as simple as a seal. I'll have them look at it but just got worried that it come be something major.
