    What Car Did You Drive Before Going Electric

    "What car were you driving before you switched to electric, and do you miss it?" Jaguar XE typeR supercharged. I miss the sound. I don't miss the 15mpg in the city "Would you ever consider going back to fossil fuel, or are you fully committed to EV life?" Yes I would consider a non-EV, if the...

    upgrading the base audio system. Suggestions?

    I am only here to hear the ideas and result of trying this. The non HK system is weak an the only thing I dislike about my space mobile.

    Do the automatic intermittent wiper function stink or am I doing something wrong?

    Thank you all for testing this. Haven't had rain yet to do it myself. I was so hoping a long press would cancel it.

    Frunk cover - which is better

    I roll with the method Evanstoni3 pointed out, that cooler bag is a perfect fit. I do use a couple dry bags inside it for some stuff. So far the last year and a half its been great.

    Do the automatic intermittent wiper function stink or am I doing something wrong?

    I checked on my iDrive manual, found nothing for intermittent. I will check my hard physical copy of the manual to see if I find anything. I would check the manual on the app but since the last updated I can't open it it crashes, hopefully the next update it will work.

    Do the automatic intermittent wiper function stink or am I doing something wrong?

    I feel your pain. I have never had a car with rain sensing wipers actually work "correctly". all the cars I had they either wipe to quick or not enough no matter the setting. @mojo Can we actually turn off the auto and it be intermittent? I need to read my manual.

    Hi Guys,

    Winter Tires, TMPS mounted on rims $1284!

    You will love the blizzaks even when it's not snowing or icy out. The all seasons turned to rocks when 10f and below and the suspension felt every bump. Im just west of you in Chicago and the snow tires over potholes are so much more comfortable in the winter.

    Potential Buyer with a few simple questions :)

    The sun roof is a take or leave it option. I have it, I use it, but I don't need it. It really depends on where you live. The screens for it do a good job blocking the sun but again that is based on where you live. Personally I do like that its a dual thing, wife likes her screen closed and I...

    Potential Buyer with a few simple questions :)

    Thank you Alohart. Been to BMW twice for it they say the software is up to date and cannot replicate issue. I didn't push it as it happens maybe once a year, and I just park turn off the car and wait a minute then its all good.

    All Weather tires for i3

    Just buy the spare set and switch them every year. Yes it's an extra expense, and 30 minutes of your time twice a year. The blizzaks are not the best winter tire but they are light years better in the winter than the ecotopia all-seasons.

    Potential Buyer with a few simple questions :)

    1) The more miles it has done the more of the battery has been used, but like everything some folks have done high mileage and have minimal battery degradation, some have done low miles and the battery dropped significantly. Then there is everything in between that 2) I don't know any personally...
