Ok. How can I check for fault codes?

My i3 (2019; 111,000 km) with heatpump had no problems with heating so far. This morning everything was working fine. Happy about that, since the temperatures are around freezingpoint overhere. Around 11:00 hour this morning I updated my BMW app. When I drove away this afternoon, I noticed that...

My i3 has 110,000 km. The SoH according to the OBD dongle is 98%

I've received my Vgate icar pro wifi today and tried to use it with the mi3 app. Connected it with the wifi of my iphone. The data is shown correctly. Nice. SoH from battery was 98% (after 110.000 km). That was what I was looking for. But a few seconds after leaving and locking the car, the...

may be a strange question, but how do you make this visible? Is it on the screen of the i3? Or do you have separate equipment?

Th sound seems to be disappeared again.....

Hi all, Today I heard a humming sound with a constant frequency, independant of driving speed. After switching of the heating, the sound was gone. It was 2°C outside. The first time this autumn that the tempearture dropped this far. The car has 107.000 km on the "clock". I suspect the...

Yes, for what I know, the air bag has to be removed. I ordered my wheel here: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005006212636935.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.62.2a2279d2mBHwxq&gatewayAdapt=glo2nld

The plastic feels a bit "rubberlike", although a bit harder than the original. But it seems to be one piece. So not a base of plastic with a rubber layer over it. To me it seems OK, but I have no idea how many years it will be OK to use. On the other hand € 3,59 is not much. So if I have to...

I bought this part from Ali for € 3,59 (including delivery). But I haven't installed it yet. I'm a bit worried about dismantling the steeringwheel including airbag. And having to disconnect (and reconnect) the 12V battery.

I will let you know. But first have to wait for Ali. That will take about one month.

In the meantime I know that exchanging the button unit does cost around € 450,- (including labour). I also know that I can order just the button at Ali Expres for around € 5,- (including shipping). At youtube I found a few video's on how to replace the button, but because of the airbag, I should...

Hi, I'm having my 2nd i3 and have the same problem again. My +/- button of the cruise control is worn out. After about 100k km. First, the "edges" of the button became "round" and later the rubber coating tore. Anyone having the same problems? And can this button be bought as a separate part? Or...

I was looking for the possibility to install apple car play in my i3 from 2019.So I asked my BMW dealer. They couldn't do anything, but they pointed me to an aftermarket supplier in my neighbourhood. This aftermarket supplier, however, tells me (based on the VIN-number of the car), that they...

I'm using the Wokeby. Works great for me! But be carefull during installation, so that you mount it at the exact right place to the hood. Otherwise, you'll still have leakage.

I'm a bit surprised reading about this. I never heared about screen upgrades before, but the lack of information in the screen is one of my considerations to maybe get rid of the i3. Otherwise I love the car! But is it really possible to upgrade the screen and then be able to use apple carplay...

Thank you! Could you give me an idea of where to find this definition for the HV battery in BMW's product presentation? On the web?

There are scratches, but no permanent dents. However, if you hit a metal part, it can be deformed and go back to its original position. As long it is in the flexible part of deformation. If the deformation is larger, you'll be getting remaining deformation. So if it was deformed in the...

Last week the underside of my i3 got damaged by steel parts falling of a tractor driving in front of me. Probably my (2019) i3 is considered as totall loss by the insurance company. But I would consider that as a petty. I would like to keep on driving it. If it's considered as a totall loss...

I have my 2nd i3. This time full electric with 44 kWh Battery. And again after about 50.000 km (in approx. 2 years) the protective rubber covers around the shock absorbers (inside the springs) Are defect. They were replaced under guarantee. But it seems to me that the quality of these parts is...
