Here's the TIS "Installation Location for Fuse F02:

If it takes that long to warm up, and temperature drops that much when heater is used, you MUST have something wrong with the Thermostat Activation circuit, or possibly the Coolant Pump running more/faster than it should, or the E-Fan (Radiator Fan) running too fast. INP mi A can quickly test each of those for proper operation, and monitor Pump & Fan Speed, as well as Coolant Temp per ECTS (NO disease ;-) You DID check proper coolant level in reservoir?
If F02 is OK, I would suggest testing for voltage and proper connection at Connector X6279 at the Thermostat, as shown in this previously-linked TIS circuit for your 12/2006 build 2007 328i:

Please let us know what you find,

Yes! Great stuff. I certainly need all this. It definitely does not get to operating temp like it should. This morning ambient temp was mid 40s F. Car only got up to upper 70s C without heat on and dropped to mid 50s C with heat. It has been that way since I owned it past year and a half. As I said I just put new thermostat and radiator on it a month ago and did not help. I will be checking the fuse today and then the other stuff if fuse is good.
I do not have diagnostics but have seen all the INPA and the other one (can’t think of name) mentioned a lot. Would you be so kind as to tell me the best source for this software for a laptop and a good source for laptop cord?
Oh, it is not radiator fan. That is not running. And yes did check proper coolant level.
