    Preconditioning problem with latest (2016) software update

    Hi all I got the software update (June 2016) and have been having issues with preconditioning on a L2 charger since (one at work I have used for years). The car accepts the departure time, and it shows up on the app, but when I get to the car to leave for home - nothing. I haven't done a...

    Driving in the deep freeze

    Hello from Syracuse NY, roughly 1/2 way between my I3 friends in Rochester and Albany. Current total snowfall is about 105 inches, a foot shy of the season average. For those not from this area, we are on track for the coldest February on record. I think the I3 does well in the snow...

    Panic braking

    I have had two panic stops so far - both for deer at night. First was dry pavement at 60 mph - I thought for sure we were going to hit them (wife screamed)- stopped a good 30' short. (reference, last two cars wer MINI cooper S and subaru baja). What also helped was that for me, the car felt...

    Aftermarket wiper blades

    Not so much...according to my service manager, its one set per year (same as for my previous car, a MINI), which would be July for me. In snow country where they use lots of salt and sand on the roads, wiper blades do not last long in the winter - I often put on 2 or more sets over this...

    Aftermarket wiper blades

    Has anyone tried using aftermarket wipers, and winter blades in particular, on their i3? Here in snow country blades just don't last a full year, and replacements from the dealer were $74 . Having said that, the stock wipers appear to be another special "i3 design." Cheers

The dealer took the tires out of the box and labeled them left/right for me .. and four (count 'em) employees (2 service, 2 sales) came outside to check them out. The were also very interested...

    i3 Software Update (USA)

    I got this update yesterday to fix the air conditioner which stopped working after the last update (for the bev drive train failure issue) So far so good. It reset some of my settings (soft keys, favorite stations, unlock chimes) - no big deal. It also seems to have changed the 'car' graphic...

    Driver side wiper - annoying issue

    UPDATE: While wiping rain-x on the windshield ... I was looking at the wiper and said to myself - huh - that's odd. The wiper on the driver's side (right or wrong) was hitting the hood (small mark on the hood) -- seems it would tuck under the hood to maximize aerodynamics (the passenger side...

    Driver side wiper - annoying issue

    Hi helpful i3 forum folks! Time for me to ask a question I'm having an annoying, and I think problematic, issue with the windshield wiper on the driver side.... which I have observed often given how much its been raining her in upstate (central) NY. I hope this explanation makes sense. First...
