This morning, the temperature in motorway speed traffic got as high as 95 and settled around 92-93 degrees.
In stop start queuing the temperature was as high as 98 fluctuating between 95 & 98.
Is this normal?
The coolant was Comma G48 which is BMW spec.

What was the condition of the old coolant? |
I'm not sure Buddy. My mechanic made the swap and didn't comment on the old coolant.
After a little more stop start driving during which time the temperature peaked at 100, got back to motorway speeds and the temperature was steady at 92-93 occasionally hitting 94.
