How to make your N63tu run cooler

So I've heard that the n63tu runs hot which is normal for the engine but is there any way we can make it run cooler? Thank you

But!!!!

Do your research first. I have a 2011 550i, with the regular n63 engine. I'm surprised this one I posted raised the price a considerable amount. I paid 79 dollars at the time. ( 2years ago).

Installed at 80isk K miles. I'm at 119k miles, no issues. Car runs at 95 degrees or so. My oil temp never touched over 220 degrees farenheit even after hard runs let alone 250 degrees stock oil temps.

I'm sure both the non tu and your tu ate the same in terms of thermostats. Just search around for 90 degree Celsius thermostat for n63. See if you can find a much better priced item.

Then enjoy the cooler running engine. I see a difference in mines......and mines is the regular n63.
