BMW doesn't upgrade REX models here in Belgium, only BEV models. The quote i got for an upgrade from 60Ah to 94Ah was € 11.203,83 (21% VAT included). Here most second hand models offered are REX models (31 out of 33 currently on autoscout24.be for 2017 models)...

I asked my dealer to give me a quote to upgrade our i3 2014 BEV 60Ah to a 94Ah battery. After a few days i still didn't get a quote so i contacted the sales person again. He said the item number is blocked by BMW Munchen. I cannot be ordered anymore. So i guess the new 120Ah battery will be...

hi, I'm aware that you need to change the volume when TP is stil active. We tried this many times, it just isn't saved. I came across a single other user from a german forum that is experiencing the same problem. But maybe this is also related to the keyfob problem we are having. Apparently...

"Traffic Program" real time traffic information

I can't confirm but it most likely is. If you would want to remove the round BMW logo, note that behind the centre emblem, there is an approximately 40mm diameter round hole in the panel, allowing you to see through into the innards of the tailgate.

Hello, I have the possibility to buy a Mercedes e-drive with low mileage for a very low price. I'm aware Mercedes has halted the production of the B model. I already own a i3 for 4 years now and was wondering if anyone has experience with the B model? Is the one-pedal driving similar to the BMW...

Hello, After driving our i3 BEV for 4 years and 65k km we still have this issue with the TP volume. It is very load and scares the hell out of us every time. When you turn it down the new volume setting isn't saved. Anyone else experienced this problem?

i removed the E-drive and I3 badge, can you confirm the BMW badge is also glued ?! Do you have a picture ? thx

Osmo UV - Protection Oil

My igenius said it is a valve from the heatpump. That also would explain why not everyone has it. It comes about 30 seconds after startup. It can be pretty load and you can feel it also. It is not the doors looking, this clunk is much loader. I had it from day 1, 21/11/2014. If it was the ABS...

http://www.goingelectric.de/forum/bmw-i3-allgemeines/termin-in-werkstatt-t7033-10.html#wrap There seem to be more updates needed than software updates only... A part of the drivetrain is replaced because of possible excessive wear.

It would be interesting to know if your regenerative braking will be the same, i have seen people complain about there braking being not that strong anymore after upgrade and installed winter tyres.

This forum is dead, maybe ask in the FB group, it would like to now also if they got updates, didn't recieve my i3 yet, has been delayed.

Normally less then a month and my i3 will be delivered, counting the days now. I would like to be prepared for winter tho. However it seems there are 2 types of wintertyres (blizzak ?), what would you belgians recommend ? Or is the winter tyre overkill. On the otherhand i would like to have an...

Ordered 8/5/2014 (BE) and delivery is for week 44 (also Suite). Some time ago i asked about the problems with the leather and my agent said it is still for week 44. Last week just added a few options, the agent didn't mention any delays...
