Is it REX or BEV? The REX has 10 year warranty for battery, so it could be still under warranty.

I believe i3 range in all iterations is too low to be a frequent road trip car. If you want to use it as a city car BEV is better, otherwise the REX is more viable. I have posted about my road trip experience before: https://www.mybmwi3.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17941

This has happened a couple of time for both my i3s. Once you turn the car off and on again, it goes away and doesn't return for another year or so.

Is the AC working properly? I mean do you get cool air if you turn AC on?

Which state are you! In many PZEV states REX has 15-yr/150,000 mile warranty. It sounds crazy, but that is the case in California. Of course dealers will deny this and too lazy to check, but if you need service BMW will cover it. The California Emission Control System Limited Warranty coverage...

Since you have tried everything, try putting one bottle of this in your tank: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-bmw-parts/i3-rex-fuel-additive/83195a2a4b0kt/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIubLb8cen_gIVxXxvBB3RPQ9CEAQYASABEgLHY_D_BwE

The only non-Bridgestone summer/all season that I found in US is this Chinese tire...

Welcome! You will fall in love with this car. I sold my first one and in less than a year decided to buy another one.

I think with the i3 you better off rolling the dice than purchasing the factory extended warranty. I am not sure about third party warranties.

I have a 2018 REX. The steering is OK at highway speed, but the car is sensitive to strong crosswinds. Did you test drive in strong windy condition?

I think if you had a REX problem they could try to blame it on hold state of charge. But for other components it is unlikely. Based on what I have seen on forums, in reality people who use the REX more frequently have fewer issues with it. We all know that HSC is a factory setting in European...

I also love my REX, my second one. Obviously it has some additional maintenance and potential issues. But it makes the car more versatile. The combination of EV range and ability to run on gas if needed is unique and very useful.

I have had one of these (Tesla Tap brand) for about 2 years. Used it two-three times in hotels. Keep in mind that these work for Level 2 only, you cannot use with superchargers. Overall it could be useful in a pinch, but it would be really useful for someone who has a Tesla charger at home and...

It shows 15 tires in stock? I did not attempt to buy, and the 175/60 is not available at this time.

I would actually suggest a 2018 BEV. You will still save money, but you will have the facelifted car with several improvements and better reliability.

I noticed some Chinese tires are available on Amazon. With Bridgestone jacking up prices these could be good alternatives...

Talk to an EME specialist, you can find on ebay. They might be able to diagnose from error codes...

I think 10 year warranty is for REX models. BEV models get 8 years warranty.

If they cannot tell you exactly what is wrong, that means it could be something very simple. Many high voltage error messages are due to 12v system problems. Watch this video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGppDXBeXKU

Definitely 2019. If you want to save go halfway and get a 2018 which is the first year of facelift.
