2024 BMW i4 — conservative tune feels great — what should I log? — trying to narrow this down

If it were in my driveway, get a real battery/charging test on the 2024 BMW i4, not just resting voltage, before blaming a module. Don't erase codes until someone who can help has seen them. Stop there until you know. Not trying to scare you — just skip the expensive first guess. I'll poke at it this weekend.

Cleared nothing. I want service to see the alert on the 2024 BMW i4 first. Parking it somewhere I can hear it better next time.

Ask what changed right before it started. Write temp, speed, and in-gear vs coast when the 2024 BMW i4 does it — then decide on parts. You'll know quickly if you're on the wrong tree. This is from a 2024 BMW i4 in NYC. Did the worksheet show tax yet? I keep a notes app thread for this now.

Intermittent stuff lies if you only catch it once. A pressure test beats staring at a dry driveway if the 2024 BMW i4 is losing coolant with no puddle. Don't erase codes until someone who can help has seen them. On “conservative tune feels great — what should,” that was the fork that mattered for me. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. I'll update if anything new shows up.

Intermittent stuff lies if you only catch it once. Capture voltage while the 2024 BMW i4 is actually failing — after it restarts you've lost the clue. Save the big job until that test fails. On “conservative tune feels great — what should,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Just my two cents from doing this recently. This is the filter I use when the thread starts repeating itself. If the story changes I'll post the new data.

I wouldn't throw parts yet. Get a real battery/charging test on the 2024 BMW i4, not just resting voltage, before blaming a module. Save the big job until that test fails. That's the whole play. Your commute and mine probably aren't the same, but the test still applies. Only after sitting overnight so far.

This is usually cheaper to test than to guess. Capture voltage while the 2024 BMW i4 is actually failing — after it restarts you've lost the clue. You'll know quickly if you're on the wrong tree. Was this after sitting overnight? I'll poke at it this weekend.

Log the conditions before you spend. Write temp, speed, and in-gear vs coast when the 2024 BMW i4 does it — then decide on parts. You'll know quickly if you're on the wrong tree. On “conservative tune feels great — what should,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 2024 BMW i4 in NYC. Stop there until you know. I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

OP update: scanned the 2024 BMW i4 again and still only have the one pending code, no new lights. I'll poke at it this weekend.
