Castrol 75w-140 rear diff fluid no longer made?

FCP euro has liquimoly as the alternative to castrol rear diff fluid since it appears to be no longer made. Anyone have feedback or another option?

This seller is legit. I’ve purchased parts for my E63 several times. If in doubt, use a CC. Also, it could be that they’re liquidating it out.

Whats confusing me is the MB oem part number for castrol is not listed in the cross reference description (A001989520310)

However, that oem number is listed for Motul. But theres a bmw oem part number listed under both castrol and motul (83222365988)

Found some pics of syntrax and the leftover transmax I had in the garage. Same part number. Guess that answers that
