That comes up as SAF-XJ+FM diff fluid which correct for the 1M. They come in different packs or single bottles with different part numbers but if that's what they put in your diff you are good!
Thanks! Appreciate the quick response!
Man I'm sorry maybe it was too quick. That number returned the FM booster on ECS site but I looked at others and it returned regular SAF XJ. You want the FM booster version which was added to address some issues with our diff. It won't hurt anything for a short while just normal driving but I think it merits a call to the service department. Again sorry about that.
No worries man! Thankfully I have a great SA, so even though I had already told him all was OK, I went back to him again and asked him to actually change it to the right fluid. So all good, They are changing it to the proper fluid as per this thread.

Thanks again!!

Here in Spain BMW uses 0w30 M engine oil. Although some years ago it was 5w30.
