    2018 Leaf Cabin Filter

    I'll have to look at mine sometime, I thought is was same as the other Nissans. The "door" is to keep the filter inside the HVAC ducting so that the air will flow thru it, and not outside of it if the "door" was open. My 2 cents.

    2018 Leaf SL TPMS sensors?

    Not implying laziness, only cost savings. Yes the light will go on too....yada yada yada. Past few years come to ignore it. If those sensors were less expensive, then I would look probably get them. Dam technology! That's all so don't get upset.

    Petro Canada rolls out first EV charging stations

    Yes good news. Many gas fuel stations are getting into the game. Shell in Europe, I think BP too. Also Shell in USA and Irving. Matter of time.

    Highway 401 charging stations

    Yes, Enroute (aka. Canadian Tire Corp.) was supposed to install at least some L2's a year ago. They sat on it (after getting last terms grant monies) and still have not installed anything. The wiring is there.

    Winter Tires

    I'm getting Michelin XICE3s in a week from Dealer. With steelies $1100 CAD installed, plus tax. Includes yearly storage of original set. No TPMS. Get a good tire gauge and save money by checking them yourself!

    Power switch: LOCK vs OFF ?

    Think it means ON versus ACC mode. Pushing the power button without pressing the brake puts you into ACC mode. Depending on how you have the door lock programming, they may lock/unlock. Also, I know a couple of times I've forgotten to put the car into park first, then push the power button...

    2018 Leaf SL TPMS sensors?

    I'm getting a set of Michelin XICE 3's with steel rims in a week. No TPMS sensors. No need for them in Winter, I just manually check every couple of weeks with a good tire pressure gauge. Don't see the need to spend more money on sensors. I have two other Nissans (08 Versa and 14 Sentra)...

    2018 Leaf Cabin Filter

    Hi sounds same as other Nissans. I also have a 2018 Leaf, and 2008 Versa and 2014 Sentra. The Versa and Sentra are same for changing CAF. It's a 10-minute job at worst cast, very easy to remove glovebox, unclip glovebox light connector (if equipped) and then get to the cover for the CAF...

    2018 Leaf Trailer Hitch

    Hi thanks all for the responses. I kinda thought so but wanted to get some real life experience feedback! I've heard that a roof rack can cut down range, as much as 5% or so maybe more, but that is because of aerodynamics.

    2018 Leaf spongy brake pedal?

    Brakes are "brake by wire" so it's a different feel then normal hydraulics. There is nothing wrong with them.

    Electric Charge Cost

    Here in Ontario, I've done just over 4,000kms and my charge cost is $40 CAD. It's a no-brainer. 6.5cents per kWh on off peak charging, which is all I do.
