I wonder if the wavetrac unit that you have is the same one meant for the m235i since the m240i is known for having a 2.81 ratio in the rwd models.
Working off a fuzzy memory here...IIRC, the 2.81 went into auto trans cars and the 3.08 into manual trans cars.

I'm certainly no expert in these matters, though, while Dan is the man when it comes to BMW diffs.
