My Z4 is running in its usual temperature range of 110-120C despite the air-con at full blast and 33.5% showing on my temp gauge.

Does that temp range sound about right for a 2011-reg 35i manual? :fuelfire:

Sounds about right, my oil temp sits at 110 and rises to 120 after spirited driving.

Yeah, 110-120C is the nominal operating temp of the engine. Remember that's oil temp not water temp ;)

That's about right but I'm not sure what Air Con has to do with it?
