  1. BMW i3
    Hi, Recently purchased a 2016 rex and wondering if anyone knows a few answers I've thought about. 1) Can you can replace the original halogen headlamps for the 2017 LED headlights. 2) Recall message on the BMW app & car 'convenience charging electronics'. Anyone had this changed? Thanks!

    Hello everyone I am hoping to learn loads...from this group, I have had my EV for 8 weeks and I thought i had done so much research before I purchased it but still learning everyday so i hope i will be able to pick up useful tips on here rather than fumbling my way through my first year of...
  3. BMW i3
    When you're a mod addict, you'll eventually run out of money or things to do to the i3. I toyed around in my mind of the idea of upgrading the sound system, but I'm not much of an audiophile nor am I technical enough to go through it on my own. But then I discovered Bavsound. The website looked...

    Serious predicament! I specified a 120ah i3, with the suite interior and the i3 plus package this week, through a salary sacrifice scheme. I test drove one of the i3's and it was a blast to be fair. Once a month I'd be looking to do a 120 mile journey (100 miles of it being motorway), although...

    Hi everyone, I'm doing a graduation project right now. The goal is to predict the energy consumption of the i3 based on data about the infrastructure, weather, driving style etc. To validate my predictions, I'd like to make some trips with the i3 and measure my own speed and energy consumption...

    Hi Chaps, New I3 Owner having tyre issues, hoping someone with more knowledge than me about the I3/car tyres in general might be able to help. I got a puncture in my rear offside tyre, took it to closest tyre place (500 metres away) as it was leaking fast after being reinflated. They told me...

  8. General EV Discussion
    The REx on my i3 keeps flashing the dreaded "Drivetrain Error". *BMW know about this, look at the forums *They're abusing their monopoly on servicing them because no non-BMW dealer can diagnose them *And they charge £220 ph just for diagnosis, which frankly most of them don't have a clue about...
  9. BMW i3
    In October 2016, my partner and I purchased a new BMWi3, without the range extender. We understand we were one of the first buyers of this updated i3 in the U.K. Since then, in January 2017 (my partner driving) and again in April 2017 (when I was driving) we have had two accidents, both caused...
  10. General Charging Discussion
    Anyone else had this? Affecting 7kW Elektromotive 'Elektrobay' posts in Islington and 7kW APT 'evolt' post in Derbyshire. All CYC. Only happened since last week - previously successfully charging my MY2017 i3 via our 3-ph 32A cable at the posts in Islington. Now gets stuck on "Ready to...
  11. BMW i3
    As I am real geek and can't wait for my current lease to run out and be able to collect my i3 (and everyone else is collecting in the next few days :(), I thought I'd share the status of my i3 as it progresses through the build process. I think as its not due till the end of March (just 7 days...
