    Getting unhappy with fuel cover

    I had a big problem with the fuel door starting last Thanksgiving and finally in February the service center fixed the issue. It would stop at a random ready to fuel at percent. The fix - my pressure sensor needed recalibration. Worked fine after that, although I have only refilled once...

    Rex Maintenance Mode

    The cooling pump makes more sense, only five weeks since last running Rex and it was the first 90 degree F day since I got the i3.

    Rex Maintenance Mode

    Will it do the maintenance mode before 2k is up? Had last run the REX on Easter (quite a bit), but not since then. When I parked the i3 tonight and plugged the charging cable in, both the fan and what sounded like the REX (never been outside the car with REX running) started up for about two...

    How many have had the drive train malfunction error?

    I just had the message yesterday after a 120 mile trip. It stayed on for the rest of my trip and the return trip, was using REX (with the hold charge modification). Car drove fine and the warning stayed on for the return journey. Did not have time to take it to the dealer today so drove...

    Don't update that iOS i3 app just yet

    Had to delete and reinstall also and it works. Old app was working on iOS 8.2 before the upgrade. Better than this one app I had (Trion's Rift) that did not work on iOS 8 at all until they finally upgraded the app.

    Any Virginia fast charger news?

    I just saw on PlugShare that the CCS cable might not be active at Mac's. I did contact Greenlots about all their CHaDemo chargers and getting them to upgrade to dual and their replay that many are already dual, the CCS is just not active. Hopefully Mac's is not one of those.

    KLE/software update question

    I am scheduled to get my KLE replaced this Friday. I was wondering if this upgrade and/or a software upgrade exists to clean up the pre-conditioning problem where the i3 cycles the EVSE on/off about 20 times? I have the Clipper Creek HCS-40 and apparently installed it on a key stud in my...

    iPod issue

    Well, I think my iPod is just old. Amazon had a big sale on PNY flash drives a while ago and I picked up the 256GB one. Converted all my Apple Lossless music to FLAC and loaded the flash drive. Only done a couple of drives just using the flash drive for music in the i3, but so far it...

    Any Virginia fast charger news?

    Well, I am not local, but I found their Facebook page and it is a SIGNET FC50K-CC charger and the FB page shows it has both CHaDEMO and CCS.

    Any Virginia fast charger news?

    Be nice if an i3 was in that photo instead. I guess I dream bigger - hoping that there would be more before my three year lease is up on the i3. After seeing three Teslas in Barstow CA during a business trip, be nice to go farther with the i3 on electric only.

    iPod issue

    I have a 160GB iPod (Classic now). While it is getting on in years, it seemed to work fine with the i3. However, in the month or so of having the i3, the iPod seems to lock up consitently just before song 100 (on random) is played, more like 96 or 97. Tonight was the third time I've had to...

    Any Virginia fast charger news?

    Saw the Maryland post, any news for Virginia? Still think someone should work with VA to put them in the rest stops along the interstate roads.
