faulty temp sensor?
#2
Could be heat soaking through from other parts of the engine causing it especially if you've been on boost before coming in to fill up. As long as it drops I wouldn't be too worried just yet, but keep an eye on it. And if you have been on harsh boost, idle for at least a minute before turning off to let the oil and turbo cool a bit. I normally drive easy the last half mile from home before turning off if I was going there.
