Sad times,
My Dec 2021 M3LR died today.
Rear motor failure.
It’s currently left where it stopped half sticking out of a junction with hazards on.
Glad it wasn’t on a M’way as I had no time at all.
It just stopped.
Screen had lots of warnings - it also said reduced performance was possible but it wasn’t.
Tow truck 75 mins late for their own estimate so far.
Bag of s#ite.

Hope that you are safe and the vehicle gets recovered soon and the motor issue resolved quickly. It’s very frustrating when these things happen, particularly as you have only had the vehicle for not much more than a year.

No fun. Hope it can be diagnosed and fixed quickly. (Could be a known inverter issue ... if so then at least they know what needs to be done.)
 
There is an invoice in the app (£0) for an inverter and some other bits I’ve never heard of.
Guess it’s more now about how long the parts take.
I found out how to use tow/ transport mode though and the towing eye!!!
