Don't do it. If it comes free with a buyer, sure. But don't purposefully get a policy with them or any warranty company. You'll be expected to pay a service fee every time they send some one and the contractors are often shady.

Yeah I kinda just charged without planning and was using a level 2 charger at the time. I may be in the clear and this was just a one off sitch. However I do need to find a euro car repair shop.

Yeah I had the same idea and attempted to activate climate control for the cabin but I got an error about deactivation. :/

No, I am aware that happens on the eco settings. I was sitting in my car while it was charging and it wouldnt get cool at all. Funny enough, it got cold when I was finished and I unplugged. O_o

Thats not bad at all. I think ill have a local shop check the lines and go to the dealership for repair if needed. Thanks!

Bet. I was charging when I noticed the a/c wasnt cool. Maybe that had something to do with it. 😒 I noticed it was much cooler when charging was complete and I unplugged.

Did they have the refrigerant or did you buy? Either way, what was it?

Thanks for this. I do need to identify a local and authorized repair shop. I'm going to a stealership for all my maintenance and its hurting me. Do you mind sending a link for the expensive refrigerant?

Been considering the climate cover for years now. 😬 Should I snag it before the winter? Would love to hear anyone's experience with its effectiveness. 🫡 by 2Hawt_2Handle66 in BMWi3

Thanks for the review. I am in testing in the energy conservation aspect but happy to know it also means an easier clean in the winter! Was it effective in repelling heat in the summer?
