    KLE replacement and dvdinmotion REx Hold modification

    Thank you for your post, and I just bought the software and installed today, work like a charm, I got the KLE replaced last December, so I would not need to see the dealer anytime soon, I think, I enjoyed the option as it allows me to not think about the range for 99.9% of my trips.

    CEL and AC replacement, activate your Pre-condition option

    It has been frustrating for me, as just days before Xmas, I have to turn in my I3 again for the CEL error, this time, they found nothing but obviously BMW had another recall on the capacitor, finally the car is back today, and I am now very anxious to see if the CEL goes on again.

    40% LOSS OF BATTERY RANGE

    Yes, I second that, the battery life is every owner's concern here, and I also find the 20% difference between August and November reading here on my mileage. I am only at less than 5000 miles here also, and if the battery degrade so much so soon, it should be every one's concern.

    300 miles trip with Rex, exerpience and points to make

    I think this very subjective topic, it really depends, I get my loaner of 328i for quite some times now and I really miss my quiet cabin of I3, even when the Rex is running. The other thing I noticed is there is a fix period of time, I think, called warm up time, which the Rex will keep running...

    300 miles trip with Rex, exerpience and points to make

    You may need to check with your dealer, as said by other owner, sometime, with radio on, I have to turn on the NAV system screen to check if it is running if I am below 60m/hr, running on 75m/hr on highway you can hear the low humming sound if turn radio off, but not that loud as my lawnmower.

    40% LOSS OF BATTERY RANGE

    The battery pack had a high voltage air conditioner unit, when you pre-condition the car, it will warm up not only your cabin but the battery itself. It helps the range of the car, it is very normal if you own an iphone, try leave it outside in winter and you will see your battery drains much...

    300 miles trip with Rex, exerpience and points to make

    Not only that, we had a smaller tank at tiny 1.9 Gallon Tank, versus 2.4 Gallon. It is not bothering me at least for now, but the sales is going to be hurt big times without this feature.

    300 miles trip with Rex, exerpience and points to make

    Oh Well, I had to admit I did not do this on purpose, I originally planed to use my wife's car to go on this trip, while forgot this, and leave me no option but driving this 300 miles round trip with my I3 Rex. Weather is pretty nice that day, 75 degree in November is not normal but good to...
