I get my exact water temp on my steering wheel readout and the temp has been low/normal.
I refused to change my WP pump until it fails and strands me on the side of the road. It's an electric part, so it doesn't wear out. Just as there are folks who have had their WP fail at 45/50K, others have hit 100K miles.
Hopefully this won't come back to bite me, but I have AAA Plus with 100 miles free towing and I'm never more than 100 miles away from a few good BMW indys that I will use for replacement.

Looks like you're about right in the middle of those miles. I have AAA as well. Some peace of mind comes with that membership. Haven't had to use it yet but odds are I will one day.
