I think it may be much worse than that. Where did you get 100mOhms?
I think this is one of the major reasons battery goes bad. I would be surprised if 100mOhms is the correct figure and if we are not talking about a more significant drop. Somewhere I read (years ago) that the amount of current...
Thanks once more. I appreciate your dedication to helping me out!
I will try to call Nissan and find out. Surely they must have a database that they can check against my VIN. Seems silly having to drive there. Toyota stores all my history in their computers, I think Nissan probably does the...
Thanks, that was the answer I was looking for. I hear that regen isn't as aggressive after the update. Is that the case for B driving mode or even when I hit the brakes. In other words, will I lose overall range since I can't recover energy as efficiently?
In truth, this makes me want to stick with my current software. I have not yet encountered problems with any L2 station and I have Leaf Spy for accurately measuring the distance to empty, so I am thinking thanks but no thanks.
The only other reason to update would be if I drop capacity bars...
Another one asking for this. What is it with the P3227 that makes it such a must have?
I posted my numbers in this thread

Makes me wonder though what the update is good for. If all it does is change the way the Leaf displays stuff, then I don't really need it.
Why is everyone recommending this?
Hm. Interesting. Your Ah is slightly higher but your Hx is much lower than mine, yet my GID maxes out at around 208. Seems like Hx is quite meaningless.
Point is, I will not put $6k into a battery replacement for a 5 year old car, especially considering that I read recently that Teslas planned Gigafactory can produce Batteries at $100/kw (about $2.4k for a new leaf battery or more for a bigger one). At that point in time, we may have better...
Wow. Interesting post. Is there an easy way to check for the update (online) or do I have to roll into a dealership?
Either way, I think it will be a throw away car. I have the benefit of using the carpool lane now for the higher depreciation of it. I am somewhat ok with that trade-off and I...
Still playing around with my Leaf Spy app. After my car charged to "100%" and stopped, I ran Leaf Spy and saw that the State of Charge only goes to 92.4% and Gids to 73.7%. Why won't it charge higher? I mean, it is the leaf itself that reports 92.4% through CAN network.
I assume Gids is wrt a...
I am not sure what Hx is !?
I am also not certain about the battery warranty. I need to check the delivery date of my vehicle, since I am not certain how old it is, but I think I will most likely not qualify (according to the ageing spreadsheet I found here).
I think if the cost of the...
Ok, here are my results from Leaf Spy. Battery health isn't all that great, but it seems to have been treated ok (not many QC) and I don't see any shorted out cells. Since I am still new at this, I'd welcome comments.
