    I3 REX 2015 125001,125002,125003 Misfire

    I just changed the fuel pump relay and the engine is now running. Put the scanner on and cleared all codes. I will be getting an oil change on Monday and someone will be changing my spark plugs just in case. I need to take this on a 4 hour trip so I am glad it is working.

    Buying used 2015 i3 all electric - questions on charging, range

    I live in Midwest and I did a lounger trip during fall. Only took me 15 minutes to DC fast charge. I have a 110 plug in garage and it works just fine for overnight charging. I only use about 50 miles a day, so majority of the time it is never empty. I use the engine all the time during winter...

    That would be great but I have never found one for USA sold cars

    I3 REX 2015 125001,125002,125003 Misfire

    Thanks, tried that, didn't resolve issues. I'm going to try a fuse for fuel, then spark plugs. I'm at 78k miles so maybe it needs that

    Charging 80 or 100%

    Now excessive rapid charging WILL degrade the battery if used too much.

    Charging 80 or 100%

    I never understood this, if it was bad to charge it to 💯 %then why did they create it that way? The answer is they didn't. Someone came up with this idea. The manufacturer already knows what the battery can handle and we see 💯 on the dash but it really isn't. So everyone who thinks they are...

    I tried adding the fuel additive and it seems to have worked. It is may and I live in Chicago. I topped off my gas with premium gas and that night I tried using it again and hot misfire codes. The temperature has dropped from 70 to 50, is this the issue, will it never work in cold again?

    Those who swapped in a 12V lithium - how are things going?

    Had a friend do it for me. Very easy.

    Using range extender only for electric charge

    Unless you get a OBD and unlock it, that's what I did.

    Is REx worth it?

    I consistently get 4.5kw (not sure if I am using it correctly) for my range efficiency. I definitely think it's the most efficient

    Buying used 2015 i3 all electric - questions on charging, range

    This is why I bought the Rex. Indiana is bad in remote areas for charging.

    Hi, I'm Bill Spencer

    I previously owned a Prius prime and the electric only mode was fun so that's why I bought the i3
