    What is with LEAF spy giving two different capacity readings

    KWH is kilowatt hours and aH is ampere hours. kilowatt hours is the total storage of electrical capacity; amp hours is the discharge rate. a kilowatt is 1000 watts which is amps times volts; the hours represent the number of hours that kilowatts were gained or lost. If you were running at 12...

    The New Tire Replacement Post

    Since I am fine with getting 70 miles per charge I prefer performance tires like 215/45 x 17 tires picked from Tire Racks tests. Contis are the best for me asa I like to corner carve and they do a nice job.

    Did I buy the correct jack??

    Stop Be sure you are lifting at the frame brace rather than the body shell. My Leaf has a double 'c ' notch that the jack is placed between on a triple thick bridge.. I don't see any in your photo and the metakl thickness looks a little thin to lift a corner of the car. That looks like a nice...

    "Pulsating" braking force

    We've had to 'cure' this many, many times with customers. Virtually invariably its either warped rotors or coating on the rotors from being put at reast with brakes hot and pressured against rotors. Usually its pad residue. If there is a scuffing sound rather than a ruibbing sound often its the...

    Maintenance Tire warning.

And of course there is also the possibility that the sensor has lost its signal and have to be generated again by a dealer, tire or Nissan. There are 4 suppliers so only your...

    interrupting charging for solar powered chargers

    I have a solar power supply for 120 and 240vac and am curious to know if interrupting the recharge is permitted. I use both my solar power sources irregularly but if I rechage my Leaf with either I would have to interrupt the charging for another service unless the current draw is low enough...

    2013 Leaf S charging question

    Don't know how many miles you are allowed but if its 12,000 miles a year thats an excellent deal to get $99/mo for 2 years. Typically it takes about 12 to 15 hours on 120vac to charge to more than 80% if you only drive 16 miles per day. Don't bet on the 16 miles either.
