Mine used to run warm in traffic. There was air in cooling system! Also i've changed the thermostat with a 82 C and put 2 fans on the rad. Now temm in traffic is between the ''n'' and ''o'' (on the gauge). And here temperatures are 35-40 C now.....

if it gets too hot, turn the heater on full wack.
the temps will drop right down. it'll be hot inside for a while, but turn it off when your moving again.
