Totally normal - nothing to worry about.

My old E39 540i did this all the time, but it also had a V8 crammed in small space and cooling was a known issue. To be clear, the temp gauge is well below midpoint and it's not running hot so really just curious if this is "normal" for the F80, never happened once in the 340i so a little surprised to hear it coming on even from a short drive like we did tonight.

Thoughts?
