Hey I found my old post from years ago.. As I was driving by the North Georgia Premium outlets this morning I saw this out of the corner of my eye. I had to turn around and go get a better look. I thought you folks would like to see too. A ChaDeMo charger and two regular 240 volt charging...

My 2012 LEAF SL lost its first capacity bar about six months ago at about 20,000 mi. As you described below when charging to 80% I would only see 9 charge bars lit. I thought it was a problem but it turns out that the first capacity bar disappeared shortly after that. I don't remember exactly...

We are getting around 4.3 mi per kwh. about a year and a half ago i totaled 88.8 mi on a full charge. This was to a low battery warning. I've never gone any farther than the LBW. Now I think I might be able to get 70 mi. I haven't tested it but we lost one capacity bar about six weeks ago.

I am sure you are correct! Thank goodness for DVR and rewind, I might have noticed but not been able to confirm without them. I also spotted one in a Hawaii Five Oh episode last year in front of a hotel.

Found it... http://youtu.be/RhCaxDWS2kU watch for the LEAF on the left side of the frame at time mark 0:28. It goes by fast the spot is only 33 seconds long. :geek:

I noticed it while watching a recorded episode of Castle last night. I played that ad back and forth and was convinced it was a LEAF. The scene was dark. I'll try to make note next time I see it or if I still have the recording I'll check when it was recorded. :)

Anyone notice the LEAF in the new Robocop movie ad? Robocop passes a car on the right on a motorcycle. Check it out if you hadn't noticed it. :geek:

How many miles do you have on them so far?

Nothing short of studs works on ice. I would think that good performance in rain would translate to better than summer treads in snow. I always used all season radials on my ICE cars until Mrs wanted snow tires a few years ago. I live in Georgia now so no need for snows. How are those MXV4s...

There are 18000 miles on my LEAF now. The ECOPIAs on front were rotated to the rear around 17500. The tread on those tires as been erased from about 2 inches in from each sidewall. It was recommended at that time that the car be aligned, which I had done a couple of weeks after the tires were...

Yes. I've had a similar situation with my LEAF. I have 17800 miles on my LEAF and 21 months on the road. A few times over the last couple of months when charging to 80% I have seen 9 'fuel' bars instead of 10. And once when charging to 100% I checked the charge level with the Android app and...

Yes. Good to know, its not the car! I just tried again (3:34 EST. had to be up for work.) and it worked this time.

is there a problem with car wings vehicle status updates today or is it just me?

Thanks! :)

I like it!! :D I just need the LEAF to be red. hhhmmmm. :ugeek: My 2001 Passat has almost 200,000 miles. But its paid for!

Thanks for posting that Phil! I (we) will be a safer jumper if the situatoin should present itself again. :)

Thanks Phil, for the warning. Out of ignorance I did use the battery for connections but the car is working okay. Perhaps the fact that the jumper cables seemed to limit current kept me from getting in trouble. I have an appointment for the annual battery check today. Hopefully if I did...

I did not but I will know if this should happen again... to turn the car on and let the subject vehicle battery charge a little before trying to start it. This in this case was, the ground strap did not make a connection with ground on the car. We don't know why but I proved it by running a...

I tried to help an ICE driver yesterday with a jump from the LEAF accessory battery. After we determined there was a problem with his ground strap we were able to get the starter to click but no more. I came to the conclusion that the Accessory battery was not capable of providing the starting...

I have had my LEAF for a year. I got the EVSE upgrade about a week and a half after taking delivery of the LEAF. I have been charging with it ever since. I had an exterior 240 outlet installed on the side of the house before I moved from NH to GA because there was no electricity in the...
