I just got an ipod nano (7th), and successfully synced bluetooth from ipod to Leaf. However, it will not resume where it left off when I turn off the car and then turn it on the next day; I have to go to settings on the ipod nano, go to bluetooth, then select My-Car, then it starts playing. I...

That IS a puzzle! My climate control meter always reads well below that first mark, which is 1.5KW---at least after that first 1 mile or so. If I preheat, it starts out that low. I'll see if I get closer to your observations by turning off Eco Mode. [That "Other Systems" monitor is also...

you can turn them off and on and watch the total change, so admittedly, it is just a rough estimate. Paul

Here is my $0.02 shout from a climate colder than Chicago: I have 2012 model, upstate NY, 1000' elevation. I have to chuckle when I read about 32F as being "cold". Cold here is below 0F, which frequently happens in winter. I do not have a heated garage, but have had no problems with 2012...

So you must have the 2013 model? My 2012 model does not have the heat pump heater, only resistance heating, and with its window/feet mode, recirculate is not an option (with or without AC on). The heat pump is a nice idea for climates like Tokyo, where it doesn't get that cold. Here in the...

Thanks--wasn't actually asking for an explanation, though (am aware of condensation principles). My experience in other cars is that you don't usually require fresh-air to defrost with just the heater (not using AC), unless the humidity is relatively high. I just wish Nissan didn't think...

I have not found a way to defrost front window with this combination: MODE = FLOOR+FRONT WINDOW and also be in RECIRCULATE mode (automatically reverts to fresh air). Is there a way to do this? If not, is there an easy way to block off the fresh-air port for winter driving? (why? on most...

Is it just me or does anyone else have the problem that the USB port sometimes doesn't play after stopping the car, turning off power, and then resuming---audio screen shows seconds ticking away of the piece that's playing, but there's no sound, when volume indicator shows there should be...

Help--ipod nano 3rd does not work with USB interface--says USB not recognized. Any suggestions? Tried re-booting iPod, restarting car with iPod plugged in and off, and then iPod plugged in and on.
