Is a BMW Oil Temperature of 120 Normal?
1 Answers
BMW oil temperature of 120 is normal, as BMW vehicles are inherently high-temperature engines, and normal oil temperature will be higher than coolant temperature. Below is some information about engine oil: 1. Engine oil, or engine lubricant: With a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), it serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. 2. Engine oil consists of base oil and additives: Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties; additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of base oil, imparting new characteristics, making them an essential part of lubricating oil.
