The other interesting thing is the part number that shows up in BMW ETK/RealOEM.

If you click on Item 14, it lists the following as the front diff oil for your VIN:
83222413511
Hypoid axle oil G2
0,5L
BMW Group
Oddly enough, it doesn't say any history on BMW Synthetics OSP 83 22 9 407 768 used in the past and it being switched out to Hypoid axle oil G2 which it normally would if a fluid spec/part number was changed/updated.

I agree with you on the above. I can't imagine why they would spec different fluid. I could see it if one was lsd and the other not but looking at them I don't see anything different between them.
