Long story short! I've notice my water temp is getting hotter than usual. Its hitting 100°c and I haven't had any malfunction notice. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

MB thermostats usually fail open so unlikely the problem. Is your radiator clear of bugs & debris? Is this with A/C on or off? Is the electric fan operating?

mine goes up to that in traffic, but never ever goes above the 100 deg line.

How do you clear the bugs and debris on the radiator? Spray with water from the outside, through the front grille?

Yes or take the top shroud off & use a soft brush plus water.
