It depends on the area where you live (or the average temperature). Dave here has a bog on EVs and the following post shows what state of charge is best for leaving it long (overnight or more)

The chart in the blog shows ideal SoC for every temperature...
Got this issue today. Was driving at < 5 mph on the left lane due to traffic. Suddenly the car just stopped (power shut down) :roll: . Managed to pull over (steering was tight). It started again without any problem. Definitely troubled by this!
Did the OP solve the issue? Just curious...
Current status after 3 years and 1 month driving 40miles per day in the SF bay area.
Model: 2015 Leaf S
Miles 36,403
AHr: 53.462
SoH: 86.38%
Hx: 76.27
Gids: 252 (at SoC 97.3% - from leaf spy, 100% car dash board)
Remaining watts: 19.5KWh
QC: 24
L1/L2: 1153
Usually charge up to 75% +-2%...
All my charges have been using L2 at 6.6Kw. :)
That is exactly what I did last month when I tried increasing stats. While QCs increase stats in the short term, not sure how good it is for the life of the battery - may be marginal reduction?
Consistent with what others found, I too saw increase in GIDS and AHr after three days of full charge and couple of QCs.
Ever since I bought (11-2014), I never charged in QCs or above 80%. Drove below LBW once (18%). With that history, my stats on Dec 24, 2016 at 100% charge were

Without actual data, it might be difficult. But, the battery degradation wiki shown here
http://www.electricvehiclewiki.com/Battery_Capacity_Loss
for your area (palm springs) matches close to what you have in terms of battery health at the end of 2 years.
For your AHr, I expected bar three...
I am confused with your calculation. If you equate 18.26 AHr (that you lost up until now) as 15% of the battery (Bold), the resulting original battery capacity must be 18.26/0.15=121.73Ahr. This is very high. Typically, first bar loss can occur between 53.75 and 56Ahr. You can find lot of posts...
I live in the same locality. I have 25k miles on my car (Nov'14 delivery) and I saw the exact same thing. It went below 55 AHr early last week, then came back up to 55.44 AHr two days back, and back below 55 today.
This worked for me

Works well when paired with Motorolla moto E, Nexus 4, and Samsung galaxy tab 2 7.
When paired with LG volt - it did not work.
On Page 59, I wrote this:
"Up until 2014 models (and few 2015), the formula
SoH= Ahr/66.25 matched the reported SoH and Ahr numbers
From 2015
SoH=Ahr/62.25 works better (at least after a year or so).
Almost, all numbers in battery degrade wiki follows this. While I understand, SoH is taken...
My numbers are very similar to your 2015 battery. As you saw in your leaf, a total of 292 GIDs in 2015 model correctly shows SoH=263/292*100=90% for my leaf (data above).
Both Ahr and SoH are supposed to report the health/degradation of the battery; they have to have some correlation. This is...
