    Mystery window lowering

    Twice in 14 months I have had the windows on my 2019i3S go down of their own accord while car was either in garage or on street. It seems to relate to some feature of the panic button on the key fob. Any thoughts on how to avoid this happening? Many thanks.

Most of the stories about the 12 volt battery seem to involve earlier cars, 2014-16 &c. Anyhow, I came out to my car in a tight garage the other...

    Would anyone have wise words on what charging services, charge point, Electrify America &c to sign up with in Ohio? Both of these have some so- so reviews nationally. Does Plugshare offer charging or only info about it? I also have a Tesla adaptor. Many thanks to all.

    i3S and Tire rack snow tires/Riall wheels

    A recent posting here claimed that i3S owners who bought Tire Rack Riall wheels and snow tires would need 25mm spacers front and rear to use these wheels safely. Tire Rack claims not and they were right. The poster was misinformed. I have just got back from Mr Tire with my 2019 i3S and tested a...

    Roof Racks

    I recently purchased the Seasucker Monkey Bars cross bar set for my i3S in order to carry a canoe. While the weather has been too iffy recently to try this out, I wanted to mention that the Seasucker is extremely well made and confidence inspiring. It is also made in the US. The cross bars are...

    Coding REX in Ohio

    Hello, I am a new owner in Columbus, Ohio and have a 2019 i3S 120AH REX. I wonder if anyone knows of a person who does coding within battery range of Columbus to allow the engine to cut in sooner and give me a more extended driving time. I don't imagine I would go over 60-65 mph for most of my...
