S211 E55 is this engine running too hot in traffic?

[Kwan88]

Today has been very hot and in traffic the engine radiator temp has been one bar above 80 which i think is 90 and seems normal to me.

However when I plugged in the Torque Andriod app it reported the temp around 95 C in traffic. I checked the electric fan in the engine bar and that was spinning normally.

Do I need to worry? Outside it was 29 C and in heavy stop start traffic.

Regards.

Just monitor it, if it gets worse get it checked out,

Optimum running temp is 98'c so nothing to worry about, if there was a problem when in traffic it would be in the red.

That's guys, today it hit 99 C for a few seconds during heavy traffic. Car still runs normal.
