Question A4B9 Water Temperature Indicator

Hello everyone:
I´ve seeing the water temperatura (on the left of the indicators) occasionally move from 90 (four lines) to up to 110 (that´s usually one or sometimes two more lines) than the usual. I´ve not noted nothing else weird on the car. The engine responds well, even when I turn it off I dont see the fans still on to cool the engine.
Additionally I´ve changed the display of the digital cockpit to make it show the temperature on the center of the screen and this second indicator shows me an even lower temperature. This one does not pass from the usual 90 that Im used to see on the left hand indicator.
Coolant level is fine and I dont have any leaks.
Someone has experienced this on his Audi A4 B9? Thank you in advance.

The temperature display in virtual cockpit is the oil temp. It will heat up slower than the water temp and you should not be pushing the engine hard until it's up to temp. Also, if you have been driving hard and the oil temp is high, you should drive slowly to let it cool down before shutting it off.

Thank you!
You´re right. I just noticed my mistake a couple of days ago. Since the first time I saw the indicator in the center of the cockpit I automatically assume it was the coolant temperature.
Anyway, my problem persists. The coolant indicator moves one and sometimes two lines above the fourth line (90 degrees) where it most of the time stays. It does it very rarely but it bothers me when it does. I have not detected any malfunction. The engine does not feel hot at all, and the fans simply dont stay on when I turn the car.
I wanted to know if someone has experienced this.
