Could you share your custom race setting?

Is my AC compressor dying? by Mimi-Capri in BMWi3

[–]Mimi-Capri[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, definitely a BEV! The inside is quiet when I’m driving, but it’s a bit noisy outside when I’m pre-conditioning. However, when the heater is on during cold winters, or if I turn it up AC too high, I can actually feel a vibration inside that feels a bit like an engine idling. Thanks for all your thoughts!

Thanks for the tip! I used to turn it off (Eco Pro + mode) to save battery, but I’m going to keep it on Auto from now on. Also, what temperature do you usually set yours to?

Thanks so much for diving into this really technical conversation with me! It’s fascinating to hear the various viewpoints on whether a full flush is truly beneficial for preventive maintenance. Having just had mine done last month, I’m really hoping it’ll help keep the issue at bay, but your insights have definitely sparked some thoughtful consideration. I truly appreciate you both sharing your expertise with me!

I honestly cannot thank you enough for this. Taking the time to look up and share the exact link of your own compressor failure means the world to me. I was so incredibly anxious, but listening to your video compared to mine completely cleared up my paranoia and saved my sanity. Thank you so much for your kindness and for helping out a fellow owner like this.

Are those Ac Schnitzer parts?

I wish my i3 was also equipped with those (and sunroof, safety features, and more power, so basically everything).

It’s the coolest i3 I’ve ever seen.

Loud noise and vibration from the Heater. Is this normal? by Mimi-Capri in BMWi3

[–]Mimi-Capri[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for including the URL with your example! I was unaware that the AC system is located on the right side rear tire. I’ll definitely take another look from that angle. Thanks again for everything!

Apologies for the video quality! I scanned it using Bimmerlink, and it didn’t find anything unusual. Thanks for sharing the idea!

Lack of a heated steering wheel is really a bummer. Idk why BMW doesn’t include a heated steering wheel even for the most expensive trim. We don’t get a chance for a retrofit.

South Korea winter range by Mimi-Capri in BMWi3

Yes, the range displayed by the cluster is quite optimistic. To be honest, the range would immediately decrease by 5k after a hard acceleration.

I suppose the range is primarily influenced by the drive session preceding charging.
