That's exactly it! I meant to post back on here - spoke to a BMW tech and he said that Low/Reduced is for 3pin plug charging to protect the house electrics.
Changed it to Max and all is as it should be!
Thanks! If I put my hand on the left side - even with virtually no pressure - it stops! Pressure on the right also stops it...
What could have warped it? The car is only about 15 months old or so
WE've got a rattly glove box lid on our i3 - it doesn't do it all the time and it's worst at under 30mph.
There are 2x lilttle screws inside the lid - I've tightened these but it didn't make much of a difference.
Has anyone else had this and, if so, how did you fix it? It's really annoying -...
Thanks for you reply :). The Octopus Tariff is for cheap rate between 23:30 and 05:30 I think - and apparently everything happens intelligently in the background... Even if he hit the "Max" charging button (ie to over-ride any timed settings), we've still had the same thing happen..... Will...
Hiya @frictioncircle
Thanks for that! We aren't in a highly corrosive environment that I am aware of - and we have only had the charger a few weeks so I'd expect any degradation to take a lot longer?

What is it? I have been hunting about online and can't find anything to convince me if it is for home chargers...
Hey Neil - did you get this sorted?
We've just got an i3 also on Octopus with an Ohme charger. Which version of their charger have you got?
We're experiencing issues with the charging - keep getting a message saying that it's charging more slowly than normal & to check the car. Have you had...
Thanks - I was thinking that myself... We've contacted Octopus so will see what happens...
The light flickering may have been at a different moment - we haven't noticed that before when it's disconnected with a "problem" but it did seem rather a coincidence this morning!
Hi everyone
I'm new to the forum and new to i3 ownership (well, a couple of months in). We've recently had a home charging point installed, and I don't know if it's working as expected or whether there are issues.
We have contacted the energy company to ask for their advice, but I wanted to...
