Okay, so we are new to the BMW world. We have a '13 E92. While she is driving it, it will be fine then it will throw up the engine temp Drive moderately code then, almost immediately go into engine overheat limp mode. She can shut it off for literally a few seconds and then drive it again. Ours almost seems like a time issue because it will do it again in about 20 minutes. Regardless of how fast or slow you drive. Interestingly enough the oil temp gauge barely moves when the engine temp warning comes on. So I went and got a Bluetooth OBD reader and watched the temp as we were driving. It was running in the 185-190F range then instantly shot up well into the 200's F. I literally shut it off and waited maybe a minute and it had dropped back to 190 and stayed right in the 1900-200 range. Could this be a sensor problem or is it the water pump kicking in and out?
