I bought a 2012 Leaf for around $32,000, minus 7,500 later that was about $24,500. By 2016, the battery was dying. I bought a 2016 30kwh Leaf new for $25000, minus another 7500, so around $17,500. (they were selling for what seemed like cheap in Sept of 2016) I sold the 2012 for 6000...

Doubtful. Nissan does not acknowledge LeafSpy data. The dealership will not care what Leafspy is showing. The fact that the old QC and L2 data is showing is of no interest to them.

I think that varies. My vehicle shows all the old charging data, number of L2, QC etc from the old battery. And the GIDs are all messed up. Suspect that the technician did not know how to reset the BMS correctly. That is what I mean by "LeafSpy being messed up" It does not show all the data...

I got a replacement 40kwh battery right at 24 months ago for my 2016, 15k miles later. 2 warm Summers. Zero QC. As we know, much of Leafspy gets disrupted by a replacement battery, especially of a different size (original was 30kwh) I didn't plug my Leafspy in for at least 18 months, but a...

I could have put this in the EVSE forum, but people tend to go there only AFTER there is a problem. This is my sort of public service announcement. Having been a very satisfied Juicebox user for 8 years or so, it pains me to be going through this. 1) If you have an old metal box, three light...

My 2016 30 kwh got a new battery pack, 40kwh upgrade Feb 2022. I love it. Now a legit 140-150 mile range, such that I now charge to 80% mostly to extend the 40 kwh battery life. BUT, if someone had offered me $17500 for it, I might have considered, but not for much less. I am worried that...

In the meantime, I have a 40kwh replacement battery, courtesy of Nissan under warranty. At this point, my 2016 Leaf is an amazing steal in terms of cost. Paid right around 25k$, got a $7500 tax incentive and then the 30kwh battery died (was a little annoying towards the end), resulting in a...

General supply chain problem. Took my dealer 5 weeks. My dealer insisted on giving me a loaner vehicle for that period of time. Yours apparently not. Glad to have my electric car back with gas over $4 The new 40kwh battery is nice, though not as amazing as I had hoped.

Ok, I'm having the same issue as the OP. But I have not found that doing a Backup, then Restore each time makes any difference. Still strange numbers in SOC, Wildly varying Ah estimate. And another issue is that the QC and L2 charge counts are still from the old battery. One thread over on...

Well, took 5 weeks. Got the call yesterday, picked up this AM. No where on paperwork does it say I got a 40 kwh pack, but range is 150 miles and I drove 33 miles at 71-75 mph and used only 31%, which implies a solid 100 miles of range at that speed. That my 30 kwh battery was never capable...

I put up with a loaner Nissan Kicks for 5 weeks. Got the call that my battery was replaced yesterday. Showing about 150 miles of range. Drove 33 miles at around 72-74 mph and used up 31% of the battery capacity. So I think my range will be around 100 miles at highway speeds. Now that gas is...

Well, generally Li batteries degrade most at the beginning of their life and then kind of "plataeu" later. That is why the first capacity bar for a Leaf represents 15% of capacity. (I think, IIRC) So that people don't panic too quickly as the first bars drop. Later bars are 6.25% But sadly...

As I documented in other threads, my local dealer was/is a little bit harder to deal with. But, I am hopeful a 40kwh battery pack is coming. Corporate Nissan seems still reasonable. Local dealers seem more variable...

To dealer a week ago. Initially, service people at dealer were ignorant as heck. Guy calls me and say that "4 temp bars are OK" even though I had clearly stated that the vehicle had dropped 4 capacity bars. Then, after another 24 hours of "evaluation and diagnostics" same smart young @ss...

I am/were in similar situation. I had read other posts and when the local dealer was dicking around (one service rep tried to tell me I needed to get to 7 bars before warranty) I then called Nissan and filed a complaint. Its not clear to me what all occurred in the 45 minutes between calls...
