It is overheating though, i get the amber then red warning symbols, my coolant temp shoots up to 120+ deg C, but after shutting the car down for about 1 minute the temp drops down to around 100 deg C and the fault clears.

Everything points to it being the coolant sensor or the pump, but BMW have said they are fine, so I am at a loss as to what else it could be
