Please let us know if that 97 continues.
Actually after first night I noticed the coolant level was on minimum, even if was filled and bleed the past day. I topped up to max and bleed the system once again. Now it stays at 91-92 stable. Actually the fan came on at 97 but I need to mention in the past there was never need for the fan as the temperatures did not reach 97 C. So I think the reason the engine ran hotter it was because of the lower coolant level.

If you think the temperatures of 82-86 degrees C is normal, this is bulshit. It should stay with original thermostats at 89-92 , in any case it should be over 89. And in max 10 km it should warm up to 80-85 no matter of the outside temperature.
