OK...I asked my friend...he said the oil temp gauge is only on 335i for Model year 2007....
2007 328i will still have fuel consumption gauge....

First thing I do when I leave my garage is floor it all the way until I get to the 55 freeway. Going over 100 should help warm things up

I usually go by my rpm. It starts at about 2, and when it drop to near 1, that's when i know i've warmed it.

yea i'd like to know if my car is heating toward overheating. Especially in Socal summer and you have the AC on.

i used to do that on my turbo volvo.....coz the gear box and tranny are smoother when the rpm drops below 1K and stabelized....
now...i only warm up for like 5 secs....

That's a good way to tell....but like simon said, it should be near impossible to get our cars to overheat. In my E46, I drove 120 all the way to vegas in like 110 degree weather with the AC on full....no problems there.
