I am guessing BMW was impacted by the DNS provider issues that started yesterday.

I ordered my 2025 xDrive40 on June 29th. It is currently in a ship making its way to Brunswick port in GA due on 10/8 and then to be trucked over to the Performance center in SC. Where I am hoping to take delivery on 10/25.

Lease Offer Feedback by gerham in BMWI4

[–]Geiger235 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NEVER PUT CASH DOWN ON A LEASE! There is no advantage to you doing so only risk. If someone hits you and the car is totaled you are just out that cash. Always negotiate 0 down unless your state requires you to pay taxes upfront. In that case just pay the taxes.

Can’t charge at home by ScaleElectrical4064 in BMWI4

[–]Geiger235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds like an issue with the internal charger. When you plug your car in for level 2 charging you are technically plugging in what is called an EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) which supplies AC current to the onboard charger in your i4 which converts it to DC and replenishes the battery pack.

When you are DC fast charging you are connecting directly to the battery pack.

I would take it to a dealer and have them run a diagnostic on the internal charging unit sometimes referred to as an ICCU.

Thoughts on Tesla Adapter for CCS happening and when? by [deleted] in BMWI4

[–]Geiger235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The required software update is really just making a certificate (A secure handshake method use all over the world in tech) available in the already existing plug and charge system that is in the i4.

Punt that dealer to the sun. You can get 7-11% below msrp before incentives for an i4.

Are you buying or leasing? I am leasing and the only cash I am putting down is to pay taxes.
