I’d be interested to know if other owners are experiencing anything similar or have noticed idiosyncrasies with their cars.

- Tips for touching up small scratch in black leather? by Model 3**picture to follow** Just picked up a 2018 M3 and there is a scratch in the passenger side rear seat. It is not a tear, but it looks like the black was scratched away. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fill in the chip? I don’t want to order just any black leather paint as I would hate to have a darker black spot there. I know..any black paint would look better than the white chips, but I’d love to get it as close to factory black as possible. Thanks in advance for your input!

- EV conversion from PHEV ? by DIY Electric Car ForumsApologies if this has been asked and answered but it seems to me that it should be “easy” to convert a PHEV to a full EV. I mean you have all the EV systems there, “just” need a larger battery, maybe an updated charging system, maybe thermal management, etc? Remove the gas tank (space for battery), maybe leave the gas engine if married to the electric motor (yes, dead weight, but is it more expensive to change out ??). I’m in Canada, zero mechanical ability, would be looking for a shop or…EV conversion from PHEV ?
