muuris, the temp dial is the temperature control knob to the left of the sliders in the hvac control region of the dashboard. A dial is another word for knob. Not a gauge or sensor or whatever
The temp dial (in the picture you quoted from me btw) is what governs the heater control valve. The same valve you've deleted.
If you didn't know, there was a recall for bmw in america which added another temp cutoff in place of the heater hose that flows from the t stat housing to the heater core inlet. It's a temp sensitive valve designed to cut off heat to the heater core in the event the engine overheats. This can fail and could cause problems similar to what the OP is having. I thought you knew about it but apparently you didn't...
