2019 i3S BEV According to my finely calibrated butt dyno, Sport mode is faster than all of the other modes at WOT. So much so that I have a hard time driving around in Sport. It's simply too sensitive to throttle position - or maybe I just have a lead foot :).

Just in case someone finds this thread in the future hoping for an answer, I found a YouTube video that shows how to add the BMW wireless charger to their arm rest. This will give all the details needed to remove the charger too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmNfNoy7-3E

My phone is too big for the built in wireless charger on my recently acquired '19 BEV. There is a great thread on fixing the issue on Bimmerpost https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1523034 but the way the wireless charging cradle is mounted in the i3 appears very different from...

Just got off the phone with BMW. I needed to reset my password (did that yesterday too), but this time only used alphanumeric, no special characters. That did the trick. Funny thing is, my password with the special characters worked fine on the website and I had been using it with my '15...

Not that anyone probably noticed I was gone :D After selling my '15 Rex at the start of the pandemic, I just took delivery of a '19 i3S BEV CPO with only 6900 miles. Comparing the '15 with the '19 S, I honestly can't tell a different is speed or "zippyness", but maybe my senses are tainted...

Great info by eNate. Another thing to make searching easier. If you want full leather, look for "Tera World" vehicles. For partial leather, "Giga World". Cars.com and Autotrader allow you to enter keywords in their advanced search. The CAV decals are easy to get and cost $20. Good Luck!

The fuel pump is indeed lubricated by the fuel flowing through it. However, it's cooled by the fuel it is submerged in. It's never good on a fuel pump to run without it being completely submerged. This can have a significant impact on reliability and pump life.

I'm really torn over this one. The issue for the providers is that they have 2 factors to consider. #1 of course is the energy, but #2 is also time. Is it fair to charge the same for, say 5kWh of energy if the equipment being used to supply this energy is tied up for 20 minutes vs 2 hours...

Checking back through the forums, all I could determine was that it was coming "in the future", but nothing since October last year. TIA, Graeme

Just had the same done here in San Jose. Tech found the source of the rattle and added some felt. Covered under factory warranty on my 12/15 CPO. They also lubed a bushing at the bottom of the steering column that "groaned" on low speed turns. All quiet and wonderful now :)

^^^^^^^^ This. I was surprised to find my oil down at the min. Especially as I had only run 1 tank since buying the car as a CPO 3 months earlier.

Sorry to hear about your issues. However, that robot is the coolest thing I have seen in a long time. The engineering behind it is awesome. Especially the way it lifts the back wheels to get under the car to the front wheels. Genius!

Definitely a pricing error (hopefully accidental!). The Mega is now listed for $17,7.

That's my plan. Sell or trade my '15 Rex before the CPO warranty expires and pick up a 2 year off lease '19.

If the "old" technology is anything like what was used in my old E46 323i, then I'm not surprised. :lol: :lol: That car was the most unreliable thing I have ever owned. Fun to drive, when it ran....

Is this a new to you car, or have you had it for a while and this is new behaviour? Santa Barbara to San Luis Obispo so using A/C rather than heat? I know that on my '15 Rex, using the heater can easily drop my range by 30%. A/C on the other hand "costs" me less than 5%. When I first got my...

Great replies above. You have to remember that typically forums like these are used by people who are having problems and are either looking for help, or need to vent. Go to any vehicle specific forum and the majority of posts will be about issues. This forum is pretty quiet, which speaks...

Both the high beams and front turn signals are incandescent. As soon as I got my 2015 in January this year, I replaced my high beams with these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LA5URGA/ref=psdc_15736451_t1_B01IAC8QI2 and my turn signals with these...

$600 for 3 dealer oil and filter changes is not a bad deal and if you need brakes, it's a great deal. $600 for 3 oil and filter changes and if you use an indy is marginal. If you need brakes, it's probably a decent deal. $600 for 3 oil and filter changes if you are the DIY type, even if you do...

This is what most of my Efficiency pages look like. I guess I suffer from PbFt... :D
