The 12 oclock position is normal. Also, with the engine being aluminum (an excellent conductor of heat) the engine reaches normal operating temperature much faster than iron block motors.


thinking of buying a 90 750il. When idling for 10-15 min. the temp is at about the noon position. is this normal, or running hot? I figured the 12 cylinder would run cooler than this, as my 735 only got that hot on the warmest of days. The seller assured me this was typical running temp. at idle. I'm not sure...

Expert advice greatly appreciated.
