Just what I needed thank you!

Thanks for the video. Use 100% isopropyl alcohol to remove the old thermal paste completely. Apply small pea sized blobs of fresh thermal paste to the centre of each processor unit. When the fan pipe heatsink is reinstalled it will compress the paste into a thin layer over the entire contact surface of the processor and the heatsink. This optimises cooling and no paste leaks out. When applying thermal paste "less is more". If too much is applied, clean it up and start again. Use high quality thermal paste. Remove old paste and reinstall fresh thermal paste every couple of years. Alternativey consider using thermal strips. Thermal strips can also be applied to the fan pipe itself to allow the bottom of the case to be used as a heatsink. Cheers from the Land Down Under.

You should try using phase-change material Honeywell PTM7950. It comes in as a sheet, lasts longer and performs in my experience works better than traditional pastes. And if the laptop has thermal pads, then replace is thermal putty Upsiren UX Pro.
It is also good to do undervolting.

Thank you. I will use suggested products and post results.

From all reports the Honeywell PCM is very effective. But it is somewhat difficult to install properly compared to thermal paste. And it is two to three times to cost as well. Thermal paste provides the option to clean up and start again if you don't get it right the first time. However, proper installation of PCM will provide additional cooling benefits compared to thermal paste. And it will probably last longer before requiring replacement.
It is not easy to undervolt a Dell XPS 13. Dell has effectively removed the options to do this in the BIOS. It may be possible to undervolt a Linux system. However, virtually impossible to do so with Windows 11. And undervolting can cause problems if not configured correctly.
