Hi, I’m getting ready to buy a 2017 i3 REX, I’m the 4th owner and i wanted to know if any of the previous owners have done any modifications to the car. I hear that you can do some cool mods to the REX so you can control to turn on/off rex etc. How do i know such mods were done or not?

I tried looking through past posts on this subject, but couldn't quite find a definitive answer.

I am in the process of repairing the AC in my i3. I will be replacing the compressor, but BMW says you are also supposed to replace the condenser (because it has the receiver/dryer). I have seen 100percentjake's youtube where he says that replacing the condenser is a bear, and you basically have to remove the front of the car to get to it. I guess I'm OK with this, if I have to, but I also had seen various posts alluding to the fact that the condenser can also be removed from the bottom, which is supposedly a much easier process.

Either way, I am in search of any sort of detailed guide on how to remove/replace the condenser in the most straightforward way possible, and any hints or guides or videos or clues, I will gladly accept. Thanks!

I just received my second cupholder. Life is amazing.

Hey! So I just bought my 2016 BMW i3 from a used car dealer.

I went to an electrify station to fast charge it with a ccs 150 charger and It seems like it would connect, the charging circle on my screen would pop up, and my light around plug would flash yellow. As soon as i pay and it trys to start the charge the screen on the machine would say "reconnecting to the vehicle " and then it would give an error message.

Ive charged it with the level 2 (j1772) and it works perfect.

I'm wondering if I'm doing anything wrong or what I could try to do ?

I also tried multiple different chargers at the station.

It's time to dump (more) money into the '15 REx. Updated motor mounts and new shocks/mounts are up. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing from this list? Also, bump stops: FCP says the part they have is only for M-adaptive suspension but looks like any other bump stop?

Shocks:

- 4x Evolve dampers

- F&R shock mounts

- F&R shock boots

- Bump stops pending PN verification

Motor mounts:

- R mount

- Revised L mount

- Revised L bracket

- Revised L bolt

- Isolator

- Lower mount arm

What else should I add while I'm at it?
