    USB port - Problem with my phone

    I have the same problem, switching to a new cable solves the problem. But the problem re-occurs again after a few months.... The cable usually works in other devices which links the issue to the car (my opinion). Have been driving i3 since 2015 and had three i3s. It's the same issue in all...

    Multimac for 3 kids

    Hi MKH Not sure that I understand the question correct. The super club junior is the one fitting for the i3 (https://www.multimac.com/p/superclub_3_seater) At picture 2 (sliding top pictures) you see the super club junior fitted in a i3. I have three kids age 10 months, 3 years and 6 years...

    Multimac for 3 kids

    Anyone tried to convert the i3 into a car for 2 adults and 3 kids with Multimac? Looks promising but the customer service sounds horrible... https://www.multimac.com/home Would love to hear about it from consumers:) instead of payed reviews....

    Defect USB

    Had the USB checked in a really good however unofficial repair shop and they told me that they cannot repair the USB but will have to replace the headunit (which cost > 1.500US$ to replace). I suppose that things are not created to last and repair, companys are getting better at this. So much...

    DCAC inverter

    Anyone with experience on installing this type of gear (DCAC inverter) in a i3. Would like to use our i3 cars battery in our mobile coffee-bar and at home. Here are two examples of inverters that looks promising...

    Defect USB

    Thanks anyway Think I'll skip trouble finding via BMW - cost for repair are crazy here in Denmark. I once asked what the salary pr working hour was and they would tell me since it was a "combination of several things". Since I made the 12V charger work I'm happy. I'm surprised that everybody...

    i3 Maintenance Costs

    Maintenance is just crazy. Have several part replace and it's always a struggle to negotiate with BMW. E.g. updated the map from connected drive and the navi stoppe functioning right away. Went to the dealer who couldn't fix it and they recommended to replace it or live with out (not an...

    Defect USB

    You guys are fantastic, thanks. I exchanged fuse 65 (was broken) and the mobile charger (12V) now works. Fuse 127 was intact. The USB then worked briefly (charged my phone for 20 seconds or so). Tried to switch cable and with a separate USB but was not able to get i work again. There is no...

    Defect USB

    I realized that both the USB and mobile charger is not working, might be the fuse. Anyone who has a BMW i3 fuse-overview/map? Thanks:)

    REX starting but not charging - Loud fan noise when charging

    Think Aloha is right - I have one i3 BEV and a i3 REX. The rex had the fan in front exchanged and the BEV had the climate compressor exchanged. The compressor is more regular and noisy where the fan is a more quiet fan however noisier than the usual coolings sounds...

    LOTS of issues w/ '14 REX

    Had a talk with the dealer and they reduced to 720$ all together. So still expensive to my opinion. We have 25% VAT. That's one of the issues with electric cars - it's difficult to do much service from unofficial mechanics. DIsplay, gear nothing worked, the car couldn't even be set into gear...

    LOTS of issues w/ '14 REX

    Received the bill. 980$ (6300 Dkr.) :o :o :o New battery 202$ the rest is identifying the error and replacing the battery (698$). I've responded that the price is more than expected and difficult for me to understand. Let's se how it goes... I'll keep you updated. It suppose using...

    LOTS of issues w/ '14 REX

    BMW decided it was a charging cable that needed to be exchanged (?). I insisted that they would also check the 12V and afterwards they also exchanged the 12V battery. They concluded it discharged and needed exchange as-well....I could have the cable exchange for free and only pay for checking...
