Thanks so much for all the details! Yeah, I ended up taking my i3 to a mechanic last week. Had to wait a couple of days to get it in, but wow, what a difference! My bill was a bit higher at 480 € since they found some worn-out seals that needed replacing too. The mechanic was super thorough and showed me all the old parts, they were pretty gunked up! The whole process took about 6 hours, and honestly, I'm so relieved I got it done. The car's running incredibly smooth now, no more unusual power drops or warning lights. Feels like I've got a new car! The mechanic also gave me some tips about regular maintenance to prevent similar issues in the future. Really appreciate you sharing your experience, helped me feel more confident about getting it fixed. These hybrid cars are something else when they're running properly, right? Catch you later, and thanks again for all the help!
Oh thanks for sharing your experience! That's really helpful since it sounds exactly like what I'm dealing with. Good to know I'm not the only one who's faced this. My car's running so much better now after getting it fixed, but I'm curious, do you remember roughly how much the repair set you back? Also, has everything been running smoothly since then, or have you noticed any other issues pop up? Always good to know what to look out for with these cars!
