With 7 or 8 part number revisions it is clear the failure rate was on the radar at BMW hq. Not very likely the .04 number is reliable. Zero reason to invest in updating a part that is working.

Is anyone willing to dispute the fact that BY FAR THE WORST part of ownership is the stealership experience. Bmw has always wanted to have it both ways, they do all they can to send owners to the stealer, with proprietary software, tools and documentation, then bow out and offer zero input or...

My original post was aimed at the 20 inch wheel folks, as outlined in the first sentence, but if there is a problem for 19 folks too, that could make it easier. Realistically, what bmw should really do, to make up for their bogus engineering, is to buy suitable tires in bulk and make them...

Was not expecting any Euro dealer to sell or ship to many Us buyers. The only way this works is if the Euro dealer can ship all to a single location, in crate or on pallets to get a lower per unit cost. Maybe central usa. The uk dealers on ebay seem to be able to provide a straight up cost...

This is aimed mostly at 20 inch i3 folks I guess. Since tire choice here is shite, and it is obvious Bridgestone is actively ripping folks off by charging near 300 for rubber bands, It seems we shoulnd attempt group buy. There r plenty of tire dealers on ebay UK with great prices, much selection...

Is the any option in bimmercode for a walk away lock up. fold mirrors, close windows and lock when fob is undetected or 1 min or whatever time interval goes by. I have code all these functions but it still requires a fob button push to initiate. Ford mach e does walk away, any way to code...

The traditional way that a rubber gasket or seal is pulled back to allow paint to continue under the demarcation of the rubber and the paint surface is to use cotton cord. A.125 or eighth inch cord is stuffed under the flexible rubber edge so as to hold the rubber up. Then mask. Then when...

Thanks to all. Made the coding change and it works perfectly. Only the first set of commands to the bdc are need to effect the change. Adding to the menu was not required

So, my 18/94 came with 2 level 1 chargers, one genuine and one after market.. So, I mounted one semi permanent from the garage opener frame with an off switch mounted in an electrical box. Works great, flip switch on, drop handle from roof hook, and plug in. I also have an rv, and a garage...

Bmw has a long history of having it both ways. They will no longer sell fobs to anyone that is not a dealer, so indy parts house cannot offer them. Bmw has always tried to force customers to dealers, then when a warranty question such as battery coverage on an i3, they say the dealer is...

Sorry I did not take pics, as I did not plan to do the task that day and mostly sort of drifted along while both measuring, planning, and actually installing to complete. Regarding the fan move, easyt. The small fan is mounted to its own small aluminum bracket which is removable. Chuck it...

Howdy, I have used bimmercode for a great many mods or changes on my 18/94 rex. Very comfortable with coding. However, would like to code panic button on fob for frunk open. This requires using bimmercode advanced mode, and my German is simply not good enough. Can anyone point to...

This all.sounds fairly typical. Been dealing with BMW for thirty plus years. They do everything they can to.funnel business to dealers and thenwithhold service info, special tools and more,but then refuse.to interce3d when a shady stealership pulls an underhanded deal, and say bmw na defers...

Rockville makes a powered 6.5 inch 400watt sub that willfit under the rear seat bottom cushion. Completed the install last week, needed to move the under seat cooling fan one inch and trim some gray Styrofoam bracing a bit but all went back in as designed and the sound is very much improved...

Is it necessary to subscribe to connected services in order to see and track charging sessions in the app. Most everything in the app works for me but no info on charging history. I am not a subscriber at this time.

Johnny cakes got the concept correct. It was discussed on the ford focus forums. The company was called Schafers but no active website is on line anymore. I have done some simple testing and it seems the I3 geometry is not correct for this. The hatch is heavy and the tipping point where the...

There is a firm tha makes hatch gas struts with a hard compressible spring on the end that will kick the hatch open when the button is pressed and then allow the strut to do its thing in raising the hatch. I saw it operate but now,extensive searching cannot find it again. I,want to see if they...
