I have similar mileage and with all these threads lately, I keep a close eye on my oil temp. Was hovering around the 3/4 mark today and makes me a bit nervous....before I wouldn't even think about it.
When my lawyer friend got involved it took no more then a few days (under a week) to get a positive response, that BMW was going to buyback and that I should start gathering my documents.

As for your oil temp, when my engine seized my oil temp was right in the middle. Your oil temp gauge will not help you.

Would you mind sharing details of the maintenance schedule , OCIs, brand of oil used
Was it DCT or 6 sp, driving routine, etc
Just curious about the details
Thanks
Sorry again
Maintenance Schedule: Whenever the car told me it needed something I would bring it into the dealer. I had an extended maintenance warranty for up to 100k miles, so they were the ones putting the oil and other fluids in my car.

It was 6speed, driving routine: enthusiastic/spirited.
