    3g TCU upgrade, what cell carrier in the United States?

    Thank you both for the quick replies. I am totally out of cell service, with high hills completely surrounding the house. My Verizon extender doesn't require a phone number unless you want to restrict it to certain numbers. Are there AT&T extenders the same way? Are there any that don't...

    3g TCU upgrade, what cell carrier in the United States?

    Hi, I have 2014 Leaf and upgraded the TCU last year to the new 3g. It works well in the city (Los Angeles area) but I now live outside any cell coverage area. There is no cell coverage but I have a Verizon network extender which broadcasts 3g in my home and about 50 feet outside. The car is...

    System frequency varies 59.85hz and 60.10hz while charging

    Great! There's two Leafs here at work and we were both wondering whether that affected our cars.

    We're islanded about twice a month. More if they are working on the transmission lines. I'm charging 240v at 20 amps

    System frequency varies 59.85hz and 60.10hz while charging

    Hello I have a unique problem, I work at a hydro plant that sometimes is islanded (not on system). We have to provide our own power with 100 year old generator units. The governor can't maintain a consistent 60.00 hz when not synced to the system. I was wondering if the frequency varies from...

    Pasadena charging

    I know the De Lacey garage in Old Town does not need any cards. You just plug in, it's free.

    Poll: What did your Leaf replace?

    I had a 2003 Nissan 350z. It got 27 MPG highway. I used to put about 12k miles before I got transferred to my current job that is 108 mile round trip commute. I've had the Leaf for almost 10 months and I have 32k miles on it. It has saved me tons in gas and my employer supplies charging at...

    Foldable Bicycle in Cargo Area of Leaf?

    I've taken advantage of free chargers all over Los Angeles. (Thank you LADWP) Why not just get a hitch and a regular bike attached to a bike rack? See my signature for all the quick charges and L2 charges I've done for free.

    Driver's side auto window question.

    That worked perfectly! Thank you.

    Driver's side auto window question.

    On the Leaf is the driver's side auto down and auto up? I can't remember if pushing the up automatically goes all the way. I've noticed recently on mine that it's only auto down. On my 03' 350z it's both ways. I've had my car for 5 months and 2 weeks and have already racked up 18,700 miles!!

    Any regrets owning your leaf?

    Yeah, this heat wave has me concerned. My battery temp gauge has not had a chance to cool down, since it is hot at night too.

    Annual Battery Check question regarding mileage

    Thanks for the answers. Yes, I get to charge at work. My employer was ok with using the existing outlets. I made the home brewed "quick 220" and found two 120v sources. It's been working great. So good that it convinced a co-worker to buy a Leaf also. So now we have two Leafs at work.

    Annual Battery Check question regarding mileage

    Hello everyone, I know we get an annual battery check, but is it yearly or based on getting 12,000 on the mileage? I've had the Leaf for 3 months and I already have 10,000 miles on it! Yes, I drive 54 miles each way to work for 108 miles per day plus taking the kids around town for ballet...

    I bought mine just 3 weeks prior. I wonder if they'll let me get it.
