BMW iX2 Owners Report Multiple System Failures

Hey there! I had some experience with similar issues on my 2022 BMW iX3 (also have an iX4). I'd say I have some experience working with EVs, though I'm no expert. Those symptoms sound really familiar. My iX3 started acting up with unusual warning lights and a frozen screen. After a few frustrating days, I took it to my workshop. Turns out it was just a loose connection in one of the main control unit cables, pretty simple fix actually. Cost me 95 Euro for the diagnostic and repair work, which wasn't too bad. Could you share more details about when these issues started and if you notice any pattern? Like, does it happen after charging or when you're using specific features? This could help narrow down if it's the same problem I had. Hope we can help you sort this out!

Thanks for sharing your experience! I'm actually having these issues right after hitting 101,026 km, and it's particularly annoying since I just had my routine service last month. My situation seems a bit different though, these errors started popping up consistently during my daily commute, not just after charging. The nav screen freezes completely about 5 minutes into every drive, and the warning lights are pretty constant now. I'll definitely get those cables checked out based on your experience. Did your repair shop need to keep the car for long? I'm hoping it's something similarly straightforward and not a major system failure. Really appreciate the input!

Hey again! Thanks for the extra details about your situation. You're right, this does sound a bit different from what I experienced with my iX3. In my case, the issues were more unusual, but yours being so consistent after a specific mileage point is interesting. Since you mentioned it started after your routine service, I wonder if something got knocked loose during the maintenance work. When my cable issue was fixed, the shop only needed the car for about 4 hours, but they had to run several diagnostic cycles to make sure everything was properly connected. One thing I learned from my experience, these new EVs are super sensitive to even minor electrical connection issues. After my repair, I actually had a chat with the technician who mentioned that BMWs in particular can show multiple error messages from a single fault point. That's probably why we're both seeing similar symptoms from potentially different causes. Would be keen to hear what they find when you take it in. Given how new your car is and the timing right after service, you might want to take it back to the same place that did your routine maintenance. They might even cover it under warranty or service guarantee.

Thanks so much for the detailed insight! That's really helpful to know about the BMW's tendency to show multiple errors from a single issue, makes me feel a bit better about the whole situation. You're onto something about taking it back to the same service center, especially since it started right after maintenance. I've actually just booked it in for tomorrow morning, and I made sure to mention the potential connection issues you experienced. I'll definitely update once I find out what's causing all this. Really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and chat through this with me. It's always good to hear from someone who's dealt with similar problems, especially with these high-tech EVs!
