Left front tire 10F hotter than the rest
My left front tire always runs 10F hotter than the other three after all 4 have warmed up to operating temp.
I found this over on the M2 forum: The reason the left front tire is always hotter is because of the auxiliary radiator that's in the wheel housing. My left front tire temp on my M5 is always hotter also and that's why at least on the M5. https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=17_0614 Now I know it's normal! Anyone else notice this?

Same thing for me also. It was the same on the M4 also. I am not sure what is cooled by that heat exchanger on the left side?

I know it sounds obvious....but is this all the time? Or is the sun possibly shining down on that tire the whole time?
I find my tires are normally hotter on the driver side because the sun is blasting from the south in the morning. I would assume that's only if the car has been sitting obviously....

Poster actually said "after all 4 have warmed up to operating temp" Oh, I get it. Your reply was some sort of joke! LOL The left fronts of my past M3s M4s and M5 all run hotter than the others everytime leaving my shady garage when I pull it up on the Idrive after a few minutes. What idiot would think sunshine would cause a significant tire temp change! LOL. Nobody! That's why you must be kidding!! LOL Last edited by trey30333; 06-22-2020 at 04:01 AM.. |
