Thanks for the info from your end, told them that those temp cannot be normal, they took it back for a few more days and told me its solved after they applied some heat tape..which only made it worse since half the heat tape was blocking the ventilation grill for the CPU, which in turn made the CPU are of the laptop so hot it can burn my lap

I really give up with Lenovo support already
Since there's 2 additional large openings at the back of the case.....blocking that opening should have minimal effect....
Assuming your heatpipes and fans are fans are still functioning you may want to repastings & remounting the heatsink..... If not paste & mount issues.... Then likely heatpipe failure....

wow this one genius level.... not quite sure what they hope to achieve with the tape placed there... even if it wasn't blocking any vent
Thermal tape allows transfer heat to the back panel as a large heatsink....unfortunately it only works if the back panel is metal, t495 has polycarbonate lined with glass fiber back plate which localised the heat....
