    Home Charger 7.4kw on 2021 i3

    Hi there, I had the BMW charger installed 35Amp, 240v max and it often hit that, but I ended up making the car throttle down to 15Amps because it was charging too fast. You may possibly have the car set to slower charging. Check the attached image to find where to adjust. Set it to maximum and...

    Hi

    Love it… And I’ll add also, I’m an “older driver” myself and found I’ve done more kms in my i3s in the last few months than I had done in the last year of having my MB GLC coupe. The i3 are addictive wheels. 😜 Mostly… I wish you lots of enjoyment and fun.

    2020 i3 60k miles, First service visit cost estimate around $3,000, need advice please

    Sheesh… I’d at least be asking for a copy of the same test results from the last service. How were none of these picked up prior to warranty expiration. Oddly convenient isn’t it?! I have the same year i3s, it has service inclusive until December 2026.. The 12V battery shouldn’t be $800…...

    New owner, not new 2020 i3s 120Ah

    Welcome to the forum.. You have some great taste in cars too… Of course the i3s are the best ones 😉 It has the Suite interior. Full leather. Love it. I think I’d struggle with any cloth interior.. incompatible with my dog. 😛

    BMW Advanced Car Eye 2.0 and ACE 2.0 App

    Ugh.. that’s frustrating.. you’d think they could at least suggest something to try. Do you service at BMW? Maybe make it their problem?! It is a BMW branded product. 🤷‍♂️

    BMW Advanced Car Eye 2.0 and ACE 2.0 App

    Wow… that’s involved. You’re gone deep into it for sure. Have you tried the support email for ACE? I think it goes off to Thinkware maybe. They may have some ideas also. I emailed them about install instructions for the ACE 3.0 Pro - they did come back to me, if only to tell me they don’t...

    BMW Advanced Car Eye 2.0 and ACE 2.0 App

    Damn.. only other thing I can think of -that you’ve probably already tried… do a hard re-start of your phone?! And maybe before you unwire it all, disconnect the ACE from power for 10 min & reconnect. Good luck!

    BMW Advanced Car Eye 2.0 and ACE 2.0 App

    I've just finished setting up the 3.0 Pro in my i3s.. This may not be directly related, but there is a real issue with the ACE Wifi & phone connection (iPhone in my case) when the phone is also connected via CarPlay. I have to go into the drive menu under 'Manage Mobile Devices' & change it from...

    2016 bmw i3 rex Fuse location

    Hey folks, I'd be keen to know how your dash cam installs have progressed... I've just acquired a BMW ACE 3.0 Pro unit I want to add to my 2020 i3s. I've read the equivalent to war and peace in posts across countless forums trying to find the specific fuse location to use. I'm just apprehensive...

    changing up the look of the rear

    I consulted an AI large language model and made it do the work... this is the response... "Research into the correlation between vehicle color and accident rates has yielded mixed results. While some studies suggest that certain colors may be more prone to accidents due to visibility issues...

    Hi there folks, New (1 week in) owner of a fully loaded Stormtrooper Style 120Ah i3s.. Dream spec really that I didn't think I would find... it found me :) Previous owner of a Mini, so quite familiar with BimmerCode stuff and have already made some minor tweaks. (fold in mirrors on comfort...

    changing up the look of the rear

    I'm of the same opinion. The rear end is my least favourite view. To me, it makes the rear very disconnected from the rest of the car. These options look pretty cool though. It's just re-colouring parts of the number right?
