When you find yourself stalled, just turn the car off and wait 10 minutes. Then turn it back on and with some luck the rex will kick in again. Otherwise repeat. I managed to get it going again every time. I think you have to give the battery some time to recoup itself a bit and that will be just...

Sounds familiar. Skip the hassle. They can't fix it, just turn the rex on at 15% battery. It is poor software design, they can't fix it.

Current bid is $750.- Anybody offering more for a nice 2015 I3 rex, 63k miles? No damage. It seems to me that the battery-pack alone would be worth more.

I had exactly the same problem with my 2015 rex. It is indeed an issue with the BMS, so the BMW dealer had to calibrate my battery, cell for cell. That was a $850.- exercise. Unfortunately it did not fix the problem and left my wife stranded again on a very busy highway and she vowed never to...

AC compressor failed, and the repair bill is an estimated $13.5k. This car drives great, battery is in an above average state according to BMW and just had the small battery replaced. APU runs great. Tires are worn and the headliner is coming down. Tampa Bay area, anyone interested? Looking for...

I guarantee you there is nothing you can improve on the aerodynamics, except for the mirrors. This thing has been in the Solidworks modeler for ever, unless you are going to do high speed racing. The best thing to do is drive a little slower :(

Just rip off the side mirrors and use cameras. Put the screens in the corners of your dashboard and you should have better rear view vision too, without dead zones!

Hi, my I3 REX is my commuter and I've been using it for about 2 years. My daily drive is about 70 miles and so far I was very pleased with it. The solar panels on my roof cover more than the daily charge so I'm driving for less than a penny a mile, fuel wise that is. However, lately the...
