I just took my 2014 BEV into dealer today. The charging port door was making loud grinding sound when opening it.
I noticed the grinding sound maybe 6 months ago, but it was short, maybe half or one second, but now it is 2-3 seconds.
The sound is coming from the locking part of the door, not from the hinge. It sounds like a gear or sprocket that is striped to make that grinding sound. The sound happens every time the charge port door is opened.
The bmw service advisor said it was the first i3 that he has seen with this issue.
I wanted to know if anyone else had observed this.
thanks
