That's what I like to hear! I was going to do oil analysis on mine, and use mine more, but what maybe 5 times as much as you? It is still nothing!

Someone always says this, and it's not true. Plenty of modern US cars offer it as an easily accessible setting. JohnnyCakes: It bothered the heck out of me too. I have bimmercode, was not able to find a solution and gave up.

I don't know what this octopus thing is. But if you want the car to not get to 100%... let's say you normally leave at 8AM. Set the "low cost charging" to start at say, 5AM. Then set your departure time for 9AM. The car will start to charge before 5 if needed to meet the target, then you always...

Well you were correct. Just validated that firsthand on my 2017 REX. I cannot comment much on the ride quality difference as I had 85k mile OEM units replaced, so of course these feel better. Car rides great, is well controlled through some of my favorite corners, and will feel better...

Did I miss something from the video? You posted the same link I did.

At 80k miles my 2017 REX needs replacement dampers. I'm not interested in lowering it, but I would be a fan of a little more control, would the i3s shocks/struts fit a non-s car? They're different part numbers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG6XmK95HxY&t=526s I just wonder if anyone knows if...

yes

I've never hit this thermal protection where the throttle is limited in a 1 min autocross, but it sounds like it doesn't take more than a few minutes of track use to trigger it. Does anyone actually know what components are getting hot first and triggering it? Does running in roller mode help at...

:lol: me too

Wish I could take it out when autocrossing, but other than that, love my REX too! People ask me about public charging stations in our area and I'm like, dunno, never used one. :D

Try it in roller mode! Lack of ABS is likely to send you back, but at least you could confirm that regen is the issue

I didn't read every word of this thread electronchaser, but I would be very curious if you see a difference putting the car in roller mode.

2 people on i3 FB forum said this antenna worked out great https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RQJHF2Q

Thanks for validating what I expected the theoretical drag race would look like! But on this part, why a "vast" difference in driveability? You just have to put your foot at a different angle to get the same response. Drive around in any mode for a week and you'll probably get used to it, no...

I'll just have to take your word for it, everything I've read says it makes the steering stiffer and further sharpens the throttle response.
