    Personal Range Record

    Yesterday my 18REx hit her range record, 230 km (143 miles) on battery before 7%. The weather has been moderate so AC was kept off during the period. I drove 60/40 local and highway with EcoPro mode all the way.

    Do the ECO Modes really extend the range?

    I coded my rex and locked the EcoPro mode at car starts. Drove for a couple months and have been used to it. Yesterday I tried the Comfort mode and found the output was so much stronger that I could hardly control my foot. I would say that one person may be able to mock the computer to get a...

    Can coding corrupt the i3's operating system?

After I coded Increase Electronically limited Fuel Capacity to 'active' (from 'unkown value') with BimmerCode's non-expert mode the TNK_VOLL_ANZEIGE became 8L (0x10). I believe this is a bug in the app. I...

    REX Unit Fuel Capacity

    Today I had a chance to code my 2018 i3. Under “Increase fuel capacity” the original parameter was “unknown value”. I hit “active” and then “code”. After coding completed the fuel bar on the cluster has no change. In the app “unknown value” is gone, and “active” is the only option. These may all...

    REX Unit Fuel Capacity

    This makes a lot of sense because for MY 2017 and later the battery capacity has been increased so that even with 2.4 gal the fuel range will not exceed the electric range. Full use of 2.4 gal tank is what I thought it would be. Mine is a new 2018 Rex. I have ordered Vgate iCar Pro (thanks to...

    REX Unit Fuel Capacity

    Where are you? What is the range displayed when the tank is full? I am in Canada and was told we have American version, in which the tank is limited to 1.9 gal. I am trying to figure it out but don't know how.
