This is he unit I had fitted https://unique-ad.co.uk/product/wireless-carplay-bmw-i3-widescreen-8-8/

My i3 didn’t have either Apple CarPlay or Android Auto fitted when I bought it, so one of the first things I did was to have an aftermarket unit fitted under the rear seat which gives me both.

Does your i3 have 19 or 20" wheels and do they have kits for only one or both wheel sizes?

All the choices I have seen are for 19" wheels - what are the choices for those of us with the 20" wheels in the UK?

During my entire ownership of my i3, I have only been able to operate TJA once, and that was on a French Autoroute last summer. I spoke to Martin at Wisely, and he confirmed what the readout states - it only operates at speeds below 35mph and only on motorways (Freeways, Autoroutes, Autobahn...

Welcome aboard, the i3 is such a fun drive, isn't it?

Not that I am aware of, but as the i3 only has a 9l tank, I saw no point in filling the can beyond 9l, so it was never in danger of overfilling.

We have a metal box in a cupboard by the front door and all keys are dropped into it once we enter the house. Although my understanding is that car thieves focus on two groups of vehicles; expensive ones - e.g. Range Rovers, Mercedes G and S class for which they already have orders, and popular...

Or even a price?

So, 15 months and 3.5k miles after the new 12v battery, the dreaded "Battery Discharging whilst stationary" message has returned. The message disappears as soon as I engage D, the main battery seems to be maintaining its charge pretty well, could the 12v be failing after such a short time...

Welcome aboard and enjoy your i3 Enclose an image of your i3 and some details, please.

I did a 700+ mile run in a day a couple of months ago with no problems, keep the battery above 20% if you can.

For the last 35 years I have been a Mercedes owner; going all the way back to W113 280 SL 'Pagoda'. My two most recent cars were an A124 E320 convertible and a R230 600SL

I hate to break it to you, but there seem to be two versions of the i3 steering wheel, one with minimal padding and one with a little more. The bad news is that the slightly more padded one is only fitted to cars with the ACC; the padding covers the sensors which can tell if your hands are on...

An SSD probably wouldn't draw much more power than a thumb drive, but would be physically larger. But why not buy a 128gb thumb drive for less than £15/$20?

May I ask what was involved in upgrading to ID6, did you do it yourself or have a professional do the work - and if so - can you let me know who did it for you, please?

Range is very much a function of your driving, I find that pottering around in London traffic I might end my journey with 2 or 3 miles more in store than when I started. On the other hand motorway driving gobbles up the miles. Don't worry, once the car 'learns' your driving style it will be...

Lots of folks seem to be offering this as a software update delivered online to a thumb drive. However, all of them need a Windows computer running Windows 10 or later; but I am a Mac user who hasn't used Windows in well over a decade. Are there any firms in the UK who can do this installation...

My Waze gives me an accurate GPS calibrated speed and I use that speed to set my ACC, the speedometer is purely an approximation. In the i3 it seems to be around 6% optimistic; in my Mercedes A124 (which had bigger wheels, but lower profile tyres than standard) it was around 8% optimistic and in...
