I want to upgrade my 2018 BMW i3 BEV with a larger screen and Android module. Can you recommend one? I've seen some modules under $200 on eBay but not sure if they're what I need. Thanks! Ketchup

Any guides out there for performing maintenance yourself? I have the BEV model so I'm guessing it's more user-friendly. I was thinking about checking & replacing brake fluid, checking the computer maintenance diagnostics, etc.

ENate: I haven't figured out how to do that yet.

So I used a hair dryer with almost great results. A little bit of that sticky residue is left. Can I use a Goo Gone alongside the hair dryer? Thanks! BK

Buying a used 2018 i3 Deka World with 30,000 miles on it. Just a few questions about ownership: 1. They told me that the battery has a 70% warranty until 8 years / 100,000 miles on it, so I'd assume I'm good on that front unless there's something I'm overlooking, but what's the cost of...
