Hi,
I have a 2015 i3, had it nerly 2 years.
The last few weeks i`ve been having intermittant charge issues where the car doesnt complete a full charge cycle.
This happens at home on my ohme charge pointy and at work.
About 1 hour ito the charge, the charge stops for unknown reason.
This can be a pain as I tend to charge overnight, and when i then go to use it to go to work, there isnt enough charge to do the journey.

My brother owns a nissan leaf and he uses leafspy to interrogate the ecu and to check the battery condition, individual cell voltages etc... and search for any error codes, all with a bluetooth dongle and phone.

Coukld I be having a cell issue getting hot then stopping the charge session?

Is there anything on the market like leafspy for the i3?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Anthony.
 
The free iOS mi3 and Android Electrified smartphone apps display BMS data by connecting to an i3 via an OBD to WiFi or Bluetooth adapter. This same adapter could be used with the BimmerLink app to display diagnostic trouble codes (DTC's) stored when a problem occurs.
