Italian wiring required……connect the horn to the brake light circuit :lol:

FYI....in the 19” size there is now the option of buying the new Continental EcoContact 6 tyres, a far better tyre than others in that size.

When ours snapped I rang the dealer and he knew the issue and ordered the part ready for our next visit to the area, under warranty.

Not unheard of, happened to us the lug on the handle that the little spring that retains the handle in the flush position snapped off, just a simple dealer fix.

Just keep a minimum amount of fuel in the tank, less to go bad and less needed to add to it to keep it good, although having said that we have had the REX for 3.5 years and the only running it gets it the maintenance cycle and maybe once on a very occasional long run each year, we keep the tank...

Down here in Cornwall we get storm force winds slightly inland as well as coastal, say around 50-60 mph winds, easily enough to lift the windscreen wiper off the glass and fold it back on itself, first time that happens it’s a bit of a shock........I do admit though at those wind speeds (not...

This is something I hear a lot from i3 owners, but I can honestly say ours is very stable at high speed (70 mph) in very high winds including crosswinds, they get very strong down here. I can only assume ours has either spot on wheel alignment/geometry and dead on tyre pressures (always checked)...

Which direction was the wind in either direction/test run, what speed was the wind in either direction/test run what was the road surface temperature during each run including tyre temperatures, do you know the logging error parameters of the BMW onboard read out?

Nah, just the duct tape over the shut lines, it’s what we used in the tunnel when tracing flow.......

Don’t forget to tape over all the shut lines also :lol:

I used these in our i3.......work perfectly but you must aim the main beam correctly, from the factory it appears the high beams are aimed VERY LOW presumable because they are so crap with halogen bulbs, these work without any error codes throwing up, and the beam pattern is good, very much...

Last time my REX turned on to run the maintenance cycle the battery was at roughly 85%.......never before done it over 75%, I wonder if there has been a software update?

Where on Earth.....well in the UK are you getting that deal from please? Sounds too good to be true.

Have you set the charge rate in the menus to Maximum, as these are usually set to minimum at the factory (for safety).

With the new 120......you should get at least 150 miles quite easily, providing your not canning it down the Motorway for all those miles.....
