E87 120i coolant temp

[R33^EC]

Whats the normal temp range?

Im getting about 95 ish exiting the motor and then around 47 exiting the radiator.. is this normal? my auto elec says it isnt jst want to check

top pipe is HOT and lower rad pipe is cold.

resulting in me changing the waterpump and thermo but keep getting a coolant temp sender fault... and ive changed that sensor aswell.
Radiator also been checked and its not blocked.

any help?

thinking of drilling my old thermo if the temps are wrong.

Best to verify, but I suspect that 95 is correct - these model engines tend to run at higher temperatures for efficiency. There was another thread with the same basic engine and temperature being queried...
