My 582 has 15 hours and today was the first warm day in-flight. Engine temp at cruise got to 80C and was edging up. Previously in cold weather temp would get to just below 80C and stay there as the manual says it should. I was feeling uneasy as well and made a precautionary landing.

On landing coolant had overflowed. I wonder if the overheating might relate to the mix ratio of coolant to water? Any other ideas.

On landing I also noticed an oil leak. While it appears to be coming from the bolt, it is certainly not loose. Any thoughts? Could this be related to the overheating?
