plug and go?

If you mean plug and charge, that applies to DC charging. I believe the issue discussed here is AC charging.

Yeah that, so I know it is for DC and we are talking AC but my issue specifically on AC started after that was added to the car. Coincidence? Possibly but a lot of things were ruled out so throwing that in the mix just in case times correlate.

I have No plug & go, which would be irrelevant on my home chargepoint flex.
It is throttled down to 32A due to wire size, so that may be why it appears to go off for short periods.
The FLO units I was told it's a short cooling break they intermittently take and then continue the charge.

I have the hardwired chargepoint flex as well and am having an issue where my iX won’t charge on it but it charges everything and I can charge everywhere. The only change on the car from when it worked to when it stopped was the introduction of the plug and charge feature that the dealer installed. We are now trying to figure out if that’s it for a fact. Had another iX charge at home no issues but it didn’t have the certificate so they will load it on theirs and I’ll try again. I’m just saying there should be absolutely no reason for the charger to stop. While mine was working for 5 months, it threw no errors or issues so just look into other possibilities.

If Service let you borrow another iX to charge at home, then they certainly should be willing to install/reinstall the latest software for,your car. Push them for that imho crucial next step.

Yeah they already did. Next is to even up the versions of the loaner to mine and possibly swap out ccu. I’m just wondering if all the charge issues randomly being reported are somehow similar or related to what I’m dealing with. Really frustrating though.

I started having this issue at home after I took the car in for an unrelated issue, and the dealer updated the software to the march 2024 version. This is only happening at my home, and charging elsewhere works. I brought the car into the dealer again along with my chargers but they could not repro.

Mine was built in the summer of 2022 so I didn't think it had out plug and charge, but given the timing of the software update and other people complaining as of late, I think there's something fishy about the 03/2024.30 software.

At this point, I’m planning to have the dealer replace my CCU because I simply can’t keep having trial and error back forth drives to them to help any longer. I have done way too much (see the charging issues thread I have going). Literally no one I know would do everything I’ve tried so far.

What is SUPER puzzling, if not frustrating, is that it works everywhere and the charger charges everything else including other BMWs.

I’d be curious what happens if you roll back and likewise what happens if I don’t and they replace the CCU. Beginning to smell a lot like rotten software.

It certainly fixed a lot of things and I’m not convinced it’s the March update but the plug and charge specifically. After now over a month of tinkering I’m fairly certain that was the trigger point. Whether it is the culprit or did something to the internals which otherwise would have been fine, is to be determined, but that is the ONLY other change I had not considered until speaking with the foreman at the dealer service.

Following up, it looks like the CCU is getting replaced. More details in the other thread: https://bmwi.bimmerpost.com/forums/s...8&postcount=91

Seeing as it's almost May, isn't it criminal that BMW hasn't released this to the entire fleet yet? I think so.

Does that mean there are some problems with the March 24 release, if so I would rather wait until a corrected

Seems plenty of people have gotten it at the dealership. I think it was also released OTA in Europe, not sure.
