9 times out of 10 it's a bushing, jack up and use a crowbar, see where you get lots of movement on any joint. You can bounce the shocks when it's on the ground

peace of mind, these noises are 99% usually simple fixes, something loose, engine skidpans/trays/covers and suspension components that can be quite cheap to fix!

PS. I have also changed from EO MIN PR0 2 (EO are a shambles of a company!!!) to a OHME HOME PRO. So far so good without the BMW update!? Only problem I now have is get Octopu sto charge me off-peak rates when it decides to charge outside the 23:30 - 05:30 window!!!

Hello Colin Thanks for your continued patience while we looked into this. I've had an update that a software update will be available from 9 December. You'll need to book your vehicle into a BMW Approved Centre to have this completed. Alternatively, this should be available remotely between...

Sorry I haven't updated recently, had various emails to and fro BMW & Octopus, see update available from BMW:... Hello Colin Thanks for your continued patience while we looked into this. I've had an update that a software update will be available from 9 December. You'll need to book your...

Elobarate, are you saying IO (Intellegient Octopus) has been charging correctly and still is or there has been a problem charging using IO?

well said...

Herewith my email just sent to Octopus & BMW UK, please feel free to add, change, copy etc, you will be surprised what a number of emails to the CEO will do, please all do same :) Dear BMW & Octopus, BMW EV Charging Fault I will refer you to just ONE forum link (...

oh and this is CEO of OCTOPUS [email protected]

so this is the email address for The Managing Director of BMW UK, I suggest the more emails the merrier: [email protected] with a cc to [email protected]

well that's helpful unhelpfulness mojo, but what can we do ?? I'm going to chase Octopus again, they are very slow to come back to me, I wonder if they withdraw BMW owners from IO if this can't be resolved and put u sback on the more expensive Octopus Go Tariff?

and thank you for explaining the slower charge between 80-100%, that does sound logical :)

some great replies, but are we not back at square one, if no BMW documentation are we all guessing ??

Hi, isn't the above the 'holy grail' of all dissagreements over what you should do with an EV battery ? I'm sure earlier models are different but my understanding is that in modern EV's there is a lower and upper buffer we can't view or use, so when we charge to 100% it may in effect only be...

I second that

Ouch, so all said and done we have to rely on a BMW update ?

YES, absolutley, IF it was part of the schedule set by OI

yeah I hear you! The idea of the intelligent option is that you charge when the grid is using less! Anyhow, you get a slightly cheaper rate. That besides, my charger and my BMW will not allow me to set max charge percentage, so you have to do a mannual estimate for time to stop every single...

Unforunatley that is the process I have already followed (and always do now whenever a problem) but to no avail I'm affraid!

ok, so I reinstalled bmw app (password has NOT changed) plus reinstalled my charger and I3 to Octopus Intelligient (OI) and his has made no differance. I have not touched my I3, is there anyhting I need to do with GPS as Octopus says they just see error messages regarding my car location...
