Operating Water Temperature

Picked up a ScanGauge the other day, what kind of water temp numbers are others seeing? My 2011 Clubman S seems to like to run right around 215-220F, my motorcycle experience says this is a bit on the high side.

Sounds pretty normal. There are lots of threads on this if you do some searching.

Put it in Sport mode to lower the temps. (I think your year does this?)

I run mine constancy in sport mode just for this reason. Mine runs around 185-190 Deg F in sport mode - helps keep the oil cooler as well.

Dropping the temp in sport mode is a 2013 up thing.

210 to 220 is completely normal. Don't worry about it.
