Oil Change and Diff Fluid

Have an oil change kit from an F10 M5/M6. Anyone know if 5W-40 can be used on the 650i? Also have the diff fluid change kit from ECS tuning that comes with 1L of Castrol 75W-140. Are the Diff bolts the same on the 650i as the M5/M6? If so, can i use 75W-140? Thanks!

I think the question, which I also have, is whether any LL01 oil, regardless of weight, is OK to use in any engine that requires LL01 oil. If I have 5W30 or 5W40, both of which are LL01 approved, can I stick either in my N63TU?
