The x6 doesnt even have locking diffs. No?
Xdrive is an electronically actuated clutchpack, so it could be in the "locked" position if they wanted it to be. If you've ever driven a 4x4 at low speed, it's clear that this is fail. So most likely the diff locks in a split when launching or driving straight at low speed. There is also a feedback system superimposed which can change the split if it believes the rear axle is freely spinning on ice.
