My Ride: 2008 535i
Model Year: 2008
Default

I have a dilema.

As there is no coolant/oil temp gauge in my 535i, I would like to know how long does it take for the oil to warm up to 200F? I don't want to rip cold engine. Does anyone know how long does it take to warm up at lets say 50F, 70F (considering light driving, rpm no higher that 2,500?)Does N54 warm up fairly quick? I know my E46 took some time, however, two turbos should heat up N54 oil quicker.

Thank you

10-15 mins of normal driving.....
GO look in the the E90post.com forums in the turbo section.... Might find it in the 1addicts.com too.
