New owner of F10 - oil temperature gauge question

Hi guys! I just bought 2 weeks ago a 2016 BMW 5 Series F10 2.0 diesel xdrive 190HP (B47) with 51 000 km on the clock (~31 700 miles) and I have two questions:

1. My oil temperature gauge never hits the 100°C mark. Is this a normal behaviour? Even after 200 km (~124 miles) of driving it doesn't hit the half mark. If I put it in Sport Mode the oil gauge goes down at almost 75°C. I saw on some YouTube videos of other owners that the gauge stays right on the half mark. The maximum that I had is shown in the attached picture.

I have to mention that there were only temperatures under 10°C/50°F.

2. Is there any recommandations related to differential/transfer case oil change for the xdrive system? Or if is there any resource available where I can see what maintenance does this car require?

The car is awesome, I just want to be sure everything is ok. Thank you!
