I would really like to get some input here. I have a 2014 BMW I3 BEV only in California with ~88k miles. I took it to the dealer because it wouldn't run and my regular BMW independent service place didn't want to deal with it. I am being quoted about $7k for repairs ($2.2k parts $4.6k labor...

Hello, I took my car to the dealer and finally got the start of a resolution today. After about two weeks and authorizing additional diagnostic time at $300/hr I am now down $750 for them to tell me there is a problem with either fuses or SME locks. I do not have a formal quote because they...

My car has been a paperweight in my driveway for more than a month now with a drivetrain malfunction error. The owner of the BMW shop I take my car in for service was very nice and actually stopped by my place on his way home from work with an official diagnostic device last week and got a...

Hello, I am looking for help/troubleshooting my currently immobile I3. The car was driving just fine but when I went to start it up in the morning I was greeted with an error and could not get the car started. The symptoms are as follows: Screen displays "Drivetrain malfunction: Stop and turn...

Hello, I currently have a 2014 BMW i3 with the Giga interior and 20" wheels, no REX. I've had it for about a year and a half and absolutely love it. However, by chance I met someone who owns a fully loaded 2017 model with REX that they are interested in selling. I sat in it and experienced the...

Hello, This forum was excellent for helping me out getting a car and I figured I'd check back in and let you know how it went. I ended up purchasing a 2014 BEV Giga, 20" rims with 65,000 miles for about $12k right before the pandemic hit. I understand prices have fallen since but hey, I needed...

I did end up buying an i3 and it came with a fob cover on one of the keys. I want to get one on the other set. However, I am finding that there simply is no supply of this part... There was one link to a dealership in Tacoma, WA but they cancelled my order the next day saying they were out of...

My first look was at 2017 REX models but the price difference between a 2017 and 2014 seems to be around 6-8k (~14k vs. ~20-22k) at comparable mileages. The only major difference between the two is the battery capacity, correct? What is the actual range difference taking into account the age...

This is my first time buying a car. I've decided on 2017 (am open to a 2016 as well but there are nearly 5x the 2017's available near me) for the battery and like the idea of REX as an emergency option I'd hopefully never use although it's not a deal breaker. I'd like gray color, leather...
