FYI - My REx doesn't smell! But I run it for significant time, i.e.: a half-hour at a time. I've seen advice on this forum that best way to use it is to USE it fairly often. BTW, I've had my REx coded by CodeMyCar so I can run it when I want, not when CARB and BMW say I can!

I, too, disagree with a number of your points. But I love my i3! Of course, I got it used, off lease. A 2018 in late 2020, with less than 9000 miles, for 1/2 original sticker. I was a beneficiary of the car's extreme unpopularity. To address your points: #1 & 5 can be fixed by "coding"...

You should take the OP's safety note about flammable gasses seriously. I used to have a standby generator, with control box / battery mounted in my garage. I had not one, but TWO batteries explode! Quite a mess of sulfuric acid, plastic shards, etc. I wsa tipped by the Generac serviceman that...

There is a BMW extended warranty for this problem (SIB 32 11 19) The dealer will fix the software. The problem is pretty scary while you are experiencing it, but apparently resolves spontaneously when you stop and turn the car off and back on. Because there is always a mechanical connection...

2018 i3 REx. Coded in early 2021 soon after I got it to allow REx to be turned on when battery below 75% like EU cars. Gas gauge also reprogrammed to allow access to all of tank. Few other nuisances turned off, too. Had a scary problem with power steering that was diagnosed as software...

Hey! How do I post a photo?

Kudos to the OP! Just completed install of a pair of Hella horns following your YouTube closely. Used a longer (3") bolt and some nylon spacers. The business about reusing the OEM plug was genius, once I figured out how to remove it from the horn and plug the bullet connectors into it...
