    Install diesel coolant heater?

    I love my car to be toasty, but even in Oregon - being warm in Winter in Leaf - means cutting mileage in half. So i'm dreaming about adding a coolant heater that is used on diesel cars. Size seems ok, and there is space inside front fenders (in front of wheels), or possibly - in front of...

    Re-plugging some one else's Leaf to L2

    I found myself in interesting situation - two L2 chargers, one is iced, and Leaf using second charger. I can park by second charger, but cord from ICEd charger can only reach other Leaf, not mine. I was looow on charge, and had to do this... I activated other charger, and plugged it into other...

    Option for NO regen?

    I came to realize the opposite from "more regen" is needed - no regen at all at some times! Few posts mentioned to get worse milage in ECO mode on highway - which supports my observation - when on highway, it's difficult to never let go accelerator pedal all the way (triggering regen) while no...

    How to report mistakes about charging points on Leaf's map?

    In Portland they have mistakenly upgraded L2 to L3 at OMSI, but still missing chargers at PSU. I didn't find a "report error" button on the owners portal anywhere. Does anyone know of how to report such stuff?

    Scraping sound from under hood! Can this be fixed?

    It sounds like someting is scraping, or like bearing lost all lubrication. But I know it is VSP - that artificial sound that can be turned off. So I have to turn it off every time, and considering removing speaker. Couldn't Nissan use nicer sound, not emitating scraping? I'd feel better with...

    Need 80% charge estimation in carwings/iphone app

    It seems silly that iPhone all shows 4 hours remaining to finish charge, when timer is set to 80%, and car is nearly done charging. I would love to know how long it is till 80%. I think a very valid enchancement request.

    Consntant timeouts of iPhone app and owners portal website.

    This feels like i'm logging into top security BANK of something. Almost every time I want to check how my charge is going - iPhone app asks me to re-login. Is it really such a security concern? Someone will hack my line to start chargin??? NISSAN - PLEASE FIX THIS TIMEOUT ISSUE!! For me...

    How to plan route with elevation in mind?

    I can't belive Carwings route planned doesn't use elevation. Is there another web site/tool to do that? My story - planning a 50mile trip, with some but not alot of recharge at the destination. I want to check how much elevation gain each path offers - and don't know how.

    Pre-heat affecting efficiency indicators?

    does using climate control when parked and plugged in decrease trees/miles per KW? DOes it when pre-heating car from battery? So if I preheat car but only drive it for 5 miles after - would my efficiency indicator suck?

    Worse milage than EV1 with Lead-Acid?

    was looking over some numbers on conversions and such, and wanted to see how much did technology improve in face of Nissan Leaf. And couldn't. EV1 was getting 100 miles on 18.7kWh pack of LEAD which as we know - can't be drained fully, lucky to get 70%. So 130W/mile or 7.4 miles per kWh. And i...

    Does trunk open button gets disabled when car locked?

    this question came from something I did unintentionally, and a bit ashemed of :oops: but: Is trunk locked when car locked up? I was looking at leaf parked on company lot, and was wondering if trunk has mechanical or electrical actuator. So i applied a little pressure on trunk button and it...

    Wondering, if anyone is selling a Leaf yet? Any bet on when we'll see them appearing on "Craigslist"? And what would be the price you (as buyer) would be ready to pay for gently used Leaf ?

    DVD video not supported, right?

    Just checking, maybe someone verified in person. Did we not get DVD video support in this clearly not very expensive Clarion head for those smaller passengers? not a "dvd" word in manual.

    How is sound quality in Leaf? Should I plan to junk factory speakers right away or give them chance?

    ESP, DTC or any other stability control at all in Leaf?

    Suddenly realized I did not hear of any active safety systems, such as ESP. Am I right that there are none except ABS?? So on icy Oregonian roads you'll have all chances of loosing it in turn?

    Heated seats

    my biggest dissapointment in 2011 Leaf - absense of heated seats. And it was funny how staff on test drive event explained this - heaters were not installed to prevent extra battery drain. To me this is quite upsetting - Nissan chose to save $100 of material, and forced users to run 2KW heater...

    Enable remote climate control even when not plugged in.

    Huge reason to have Leaf for me - have it warm and ready for me before I jump in - have remote control of climate control. And this has to be possible even if Leaf is not plugged in. It may be limited to 5 minutes for example (if you turn it on and forget - it will shut off in 5 min), but...
