2024 BMW i4 eDrive40 — would a major price cut make you worry about resale?

A manufacturer cutting MSRP or adding huge incentives is great if you're buying now, but painful for recent buyers. How much do you factor future price cuts into EV/luxury-car decisions? If I fix it I'll come back and update the thread.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2024 BMW i4 so service can see what you saw. Then you'll know the next fork. Just my two cents from doing this recently. Next check is the cheap one I can do in a driveway.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2024 BMW i4 charge sessions. That's where I'd start. This is from a 2024 BMW i4 in Connecticut. Monthly payment math is how wallets disappear. That's coming from doing this as an owner, not a shop. I refuse to clear codes until someone else sees them.

Low-voltage gremlins will strand you even with a full pack. Try a second charger before blaming the 2024 BMW i4 — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. That's where I'd start. Keep sale price, fees, and rate as three different conversations. Heat soak after errands is the other window.

Same neighborhood, different next step: On the 2024 BMW i4, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. Then you'll know the next fork. On “would a major price cut make you,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 2024 BMW i4 in Connecticut. Take it or leave it — that's what I'd do. I'll update if anything new shows up.
