I just did mine today at 95000 kms and found that only around 550~600 came out. But when i filled it,it took around 800~850 ml up to the neck of the filler hole.I didn't see any leak and was little confused.Then i checked in ISTA and it clearly stated that correct amount is 600Ml.Then i had to drain around 200 ml.Its not that dangerous but better to keep in the spec.

My rear differential oil had a very little change in color and front differential oil was little darker than rear.Transfer case oil was quite dark.Then i performed the oil change adaptation reset in ISTA.
Is this for the diesel only? Or is it for all x5? What about the rear differential, does it only take 600ml of fluid also? Thanks, Sam
