    Online Search Not Working (iDrive)

    Lately ...within the last few days....the Online Search ability via voice command simply doesn't work. I press the voice command button, say Online Search, it opens up the dialogue screen, asks for me to state the name of what I want, then the message to the right states "Online Search is not...

    Infamous Steering Creaking Sound

    Just wanted to let you all know that my car...a 2019 i3s BEV...is developing this issue. It's particularly pronounced right now as it's cold and it seems (via the TSB out for this issue) the issue occurs more frequently in colder climates. It has something to do either with the steering...

    Screen Upgrade Ad-Nauseum

    Sorry for resurrecting this topic since some feel it's a dead one (due to lack of information or because some have tried and claimed it's failed). So here's the deal. Some have claimed that 2018 and newer models cannot do a simple screen upgrade/recode because the head unit on the newer models...

    Got into an accident...car totaled

    Hey all, Got into a car accident on the 10th. Sadly the car was totaled....a 2018 i3s loaded with Deka package. Beautiful car...practically stole it off the lot a mere year ago. Have to say, the car itself held up like a champ. It's dainty and expensive to fix but has a solid frame that...

    Charging Schedule Issue

    Hey folks. I usually use my BMW app to start and stop charging in order to control SOC. Up until tonight, I was able to turn off my charging by setting my charging status from Immediate to Charge in Time Slot and setting a departure time. Once doing that, the charging session would stop...

    Headlight Lens Treatment

    Hello all: Has anyone successfully treated their headlight lenses for pitting? My lenses are somewhat pitted but not cloudy like you'd fine on older vehicles say 7, 8 years old. The actual outer surfaces are quite pitted but I'm afraid to perform one of those headlight restoration...

    i3 Hate

    Not a usual topic but having recently purchased a Tesla M3, I decided to join the Tesla forums and man....I've never come across such narcissistic, arrogant people in my life. The fanboy-ism is alive and well there I can assure you. The irony of them calling me a BMW fanboy given I own both...

    Returning Our Lease

    Leased an i3s two years ago and the time has come to return it. Real shame as I would have kept it had BMW offered a decent deal for the lease return. It's been a great car... real shame. Low miles, nicely fitted, well taken care of. Pains me to return it to them.

    iDrive Tiles - Locations Keep Resetting

    Hi Folks, I have a 2018 i3s with iDrive 6 I believe. I have the larger screen but that should not make a difference. The issue I'm having is that when I customize my iDrive tile layout, sometimes when I turn the vehicle on the locations have reset back to their default locations. Has anyone...

    Hey folks. Have any of you noticed the difference between REx and BEV models lower front air dam louvers? I noticed today that my 2018 BEV has what looks like automatically controlled airflow louvers that looked like they were almost fully closed off during charging while my 2019 REx has no...

    Mileage Estimation

    I've yet to fully figure out how the on board system calculates predicted full charge mileage. It's very strange. I feel as though the system should take the average efficiency as the predictor but it doesn't. For example, yesterday I actually had the heat on during my drive home. I was...
