Hi
Welcome.

Someone has, and a quick use of the search facility will find it.

The main issue will be getting hold of one to change...

That's an E53 not an E70.....unless this is the wrong section?

What's gone wrong?  Any idea of the cause - such as incorrect tyre sizes/choice?  And yes, finding a replacement of the right type will be the challenge.  Needs to match engine type, gearbox type and possibly model year (for preLCI/LCI cars).

And also must have an imprint of the designers DNA and a thumb print from the second cleaner on the night shift on every opposing Tuesday...

Which would probably be easier to get hold of than a diff unfortunately!!
