Bmw engineers in this case decided to provide us with an oil temp gauge instead of a coolant temp gauge because this information is more relevant to the n54. Engine oil takes a while to reach optimum temp, which is also higher on this platform typical. How would a water temp gauge have helped you regarding your cracked coolant? Your low coolant light would turn on before the coolant would overheat. And if it was going to overheat, there's a light for that too.
