BMW SAF-XO is 75W90 GL-5 gear oil for BMW non-limited slip differentials produced up to 7/2011 production date. SAF-XO and BMW "Synthetik OSP" gear oil (part #83222365987) are interchangeable. This fluid works for either the front or rear differentials on xDrive models.
BMW made a universal change in 7/2011 for their gear oil specs. The SAF-XO/OSP fluid is 75W90 and is used on all non-limited slip differentials made before 7/2011. For 7/2011-later cars use 75W85 gear oil (BMW part #83222295532).
