Driving temp & overheating

How high is it actually getting?
Because I wouldn't call 95degC "overheating".
 
Well I've seen it up to 98°c, before I've chosen to put the interior heating on full blast to keep it down..
Seriously, that isn't over heating. Certainly no need at all to panic and put the heating on...

Remember that 100degC is NOT boiling for two reasons.
1) The coolant isn't water. So has a boiling point well over 100.
2) It is under pressure, which raises the boiling point even further.

I once used a coolant with a boiling point of 180degC.


But obviously make sure that the fans work at both low speed and high speed.
