Is that normal for the Benz because I want to keep this one and if overheating is an issue for Mercedes, I need to work on a plan B.

Any info is appreciated.

see picture below, between the two redmarks is average, it is not uncommon to go above the upper mark which is 100 on hot days with a/c on, both are celcius
