    BMW i3 Heavy steering issue.

    By Markymark

    Hi All I bought a BMW i3 recently. On a 2015 plate 20000 miles on the clock full BMW service history. I really like the car. However it's got a heavy steering proplem. I've taken it to BMW for a diagnostic check. They had the car for an hour and said, we have checked everything and it must be the steering rack, at a cost of £3600 pounds. Can anyone please advise me regarding this issue. The more I look into the issue, the more I get frustrated, it could be loads of things. I've done... Read more

    Expensive Rear Light Replacement!

    By Puppethead

    Broke one of the rear lights on my F-150 Lightning Flash, and it turns out the replacement part is over $2500 from Ford. It's the whole corner light assembly and apparently there's a camera inside, but yeesh that costs more than my laptop did. Insurance company refused to cover the whole cost, but they did cover a significant amount. There are aftermarket options, but each of those is over $500 and I'd probably want to replace both sides just to make sure there was no slight difference. So... Read more

    Taycan 4S: A dream, over two years of problems, and still waiting for Porsche to act

    By hakanazap

    If you are considering a Porsche Taycan, I would like you to know about our experience in Turkey before making your decision. I would especially appreciate hearing from owners who have been through a similar high-voltage battery repair or have escalated their case directly to Porsche AG. In May 2024, our family bought a brand-new Taycan 4S from Doğuş Oto Maslak. Owning a Porsche had been a dream of mine since childhood. After thirty years of hard work, taking delivery of that car was... Read more

    Another BMS recall for the Kona

    By Electric Rich

    I heard wind of another BMS recall and sure enough, after checking my Vin# with Hyundai, they want to run some diagnostics on it. 2019 Kona EV Checking for battery cell damage and updating BMS software I think. Sounds like the current BMS S/W may lead to over heating/charging and cause a fire in super rare cases.

    Time of day SuperCharger rates

    By bwilson4web

    I was one of two cars charging at a nearby, 8 stall charging station at 11:45 PM. Then in the next 15 minutes, all stalls filled up. The charge rate after midnight dropped from $0.38/kWh to $0.20/kWh. Local Tesla owners adapted by waiting for midnight rate drops to charge. Of course the congestion charges kicked in so I moved to another, 16 stall charging station and got the extra I needed. This explains how those without residential charging can own a Tesla and get close to... Read more

    Was the Smile Machine e-Scooter Inspired by Aptera?

    By insightman

    Like an Aptera, the Lightfoot Smile Machine is covered in solar cells. Another thing they have in common is that driving either an Aptera or this e-Scooter would make me smile. The company says the Smile Machine's two 120-Watt solar panels can add up to 18 miles of range per day. I wonder if you could increase that by parking next to a big mirror, so both sides of the scooter can generate power? Perhaps some unfolding options for the solar panels would improve the...

    Hi everyone, I am looking to buy a set of the 17-inch asymmetrical "Corona Spoke" (also known as Power Spoke) wheels originally found on the Cooper SE.

    Need Advice: 2022 Accord Hybrid – HV Battery Replacement After Welding

    By richardo2020

    Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice on my 2022 Accord Hybrid and its high-voltage (HV) battery. Here’s the background: I purchased the car wrecked at auction. It was running fine when I received it. During welding (with the 12V battery disconnected), the process ended up frying the VSA/ABS modulator. That issue has already been fixed. While chasing down that repair, the HV battery fully discharged. Where I am now: Dealer quoted ~$4,900 for a new... Read more

    Splash Guard, 2025 edition

    By Dan Albrich

    Feel free to point me at relevant threads if this has been covered. I did find some discussion, but I'm looking for the best method or work-around. Not sure correct name. Maybe called under-cover. So the Clarity, as we know, has an unreasonable low "splash guard" if that's what it's called in the front, under the car. What I mean is that parking in a normal space with one of those curb-cut things infront, causes the car to scrape if the bumper goes over it. I don't mean driving over... Read more

    When is Old Too Old?

    By jazdean

    My 2018 Clarity PHEV is still running well at 46k miles, and the battery still charges fully to 47 miles. Kept in the garage in the seattle area and has been a wonderful vehicle for only $36k. But I'm wondering when would be the optimal time to sell and buy another PHEV. Now seems about right, but I'm having trouble finding another PHEV that has the same/better EV range and still as much comfort and interior/trunk space. Suggestions?

    2027 BMW i3 Pricing Guide

    By insightman

    I found this BMW i3 NA0 Pricing Guide (copyright 2025!) on the Bimmerpost website. It's easier to use than BMW's online configurator website, except that it doesn't include photos of the options like the configurator does. It's nice to see the complete list of standard features on page 9. Glad to see Tier 2 (code ZTM) is standard, but what is it? Oh, Google says, "Tier 2 emissions/regulatory compliance specification on U.S. market build sheets and vehicle inquiry reports." It's just... Read more
