2021 BMW i3 Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2021 BMW i3 stays with one body and three trims, a four-door hatchback in Base, Mobility and Range Extender, and two entries on the engine listing, a 0.6L single-overhead-cam two-cylinder and battery-electric drive. What that gives a technician is a narrow, well-defined target: a fixed set of specifications, one wiring architecture, and procedures written for the components this car actually carries rather than for a range of loosely related vehicles.

• 0.6L I2 battery electric — SOHC, naturally aspirated
• Battery-electric drive (EV)

Known issues on the 2021 i3. The manual's value is in what it documents: high-voltage safety and isolation steps ahead of any work on the electric drive, mechanical procedures and tightening specifications for the small engine on the listing, driveline and chassis sections with their service limits, and body, glass and climate coverage for the hatchback. Wiring diagrams and diagnostic tables give the circuits, test conditions and readings used to confirm a repair.
