    New EME and Software update - having charging problems

    My i3 REx's EME failed and it has been replaced and I also received the latest software update which reduces the i3 charging levels to around 5.0 Kw/h. Picked up the car on Thursday and now I find that the i3 will only charge immediately. The delayed charging function no longer operates. I...

    Has anyone got a fault-free i3?

    I have 2,000 miles on my i3 REx. CEL software update took 4 days. The i3 is in for repair again for a week now -- awaiting delivery of a new EME...will probably be a total of 10 days before they are done. I am assuming my i3 will be returned with the charging power reduction fix to avoid the...

    Onboard Charger Issues

    I just need a bit of a clarification with the problem Tom described to start this thread. I posted this in another thread earlier today but then found this one... My i3 REx (2,000 miles) has been charging fine using the low cost charging setup. I have a power consumption monitor for my home...

    BMW i3 REX - Taking too long to charge on Maximum Setting

    Looks like I have developed a similar problem. My i3 REx (2,000 miles) has been charging fine using the low cost charging setup. I have a power consumption monitor for my home electrical service and I can see that the car draws about 7.2KwH. Last night the car charge failed. I switched it to...

I have signed up for the free ChargeNow DC Fast Charge program -- so I just tapped by Chargenow card on the front of the unit, plugged in the car, hit "start" and that was it...

    Delayed Charging mode.

    I have seen a somewhat similar behavior with my i3 REX....but only for a short period of time. I have delayed charging set for 12:05 am to 5:55 am and a planned departure of 6:30 am daily. This time frame corresponds to the off-peak charging time for my household electric plan in California...

    Check Engine Light

    My Rex CEL patch was done last week. Took 3 days to have the work completed. Issue has not re-appeared. The only advice the dealer gave me was always bring it in on a Monday...since it will take some time when software patching or upgrading is required. I guess BMW will get better (and...

    i3 CEL software update

    I have had my i3 REx for about a week now - great car - enjoying everything about it...well almost! As many US REx customers have reported I have the CEL issue. I dropped the vehicle off at my dealer in Los Angeles and I am now going into day 3 of the software update process. I guess I am not...
