Bmw x3 2013 oil temp high and sounds like a jet

Xbeem · 10-17-2023, 05:18 PM

2023 x3 oil temp get high but go back down on idle. Never reaches 250f but once it's starts warming up the car sounds like a jet on low rpm and stop when I come to a complete stop.

Now I have changed water pump with thermostat, engine oil cooler and coolant sensor but hasn't solved the problem. Any ideas or advice be much appreciated. I've had the drive train malfunction come on but that's just seems it's after driving it for so long.

Transmission whine. Get the fluid checked ASAP. Has it been shifting strange? Transmission has a cooler.

change the transmission tstat, there's two of them. it's called transmission cooler, as others have mentioned, for me, replacing the tstat fixed the issue.

until then the car sounded like a fighter jet.... CEL present, scary but life. goes. on. Bugatti bank balance baby.
