Ok, so we'll need to revisit with more comparable data, if and when you feel like taking the risk! All of what sagebrush says is, I'm sure, very precise. I don't really know of what relevance any of the gids or kWh references made are to this experiment. We have only used %SoC and compared like...

And IF his voltages are for example significantly different to mine, and IF the only difference turned out to be that he had not had the BMS software update, then it would seem to me a very safe conclusion that the software update changes the protection at the bottom end of discharge. We are...

And of course if you've read the start of the thread, what I am trying to find out about is the cell voltages in a Leaf when turtle is triggered and then when run lower. Determining that in a brand new Leaf and comparing to mine would be a poor comparison, but as Goldbrick's seems to have a...

Pretty dreadful quoting there, choosing to miss off the IF and the conditions associated at the start of my statement. But I guess tabloid journalism is everywhere. But Hi. I don't think what you said makes much sense. Sure there are always many factors, and that is important to consider. In...

:D Yep, that works! I'm still not very good at undertaking leafspy, but it looks as though the car was taking a 5kW charge when you took those pics. If that is the case then of course the voltages would be being pulled up by the charger. I don't know by how much, but I don't think it would be...

Nope I can't see diddly. I've tried on PC and mobile, just get the same 'no entry' sign. as, I'm sure this is of limited interest to others maybe I could just pm you my email?

It could be me! I am aghast at how difficult it is to insert pics on this forum. I had to go read through pages of suggestions in the faq before I found someone clever who posted how to modify the links given by Google photos so they would show up here... It was almost coding (well for a non...

Thanks Goldbrick for putting yourself through what sounds like the perfect résumé of EV ownership! Range, infrastructure and morons. You got it all, 😭. But, I can't see your images. Is it me? All I see is two grey "no entry" signposts. I've logged in and can see other pics... Any ideas? My...

The motor is situated in the enormous, gigantic, totally wasted cavity under the boot space. Where once would have been a spare wheel. But it is just empty space (perfect for battery extensions) boxed in by the rearmost undertray plastic. That comes off pretty easy with a few M10 nuts and...

Hey, I have a click/clacking Leaf. But it is 7 years old. I have done nothing about it. It is only when setting off, and I would say only after having applied the brakes. So I had assumed that it was a brake pad lubrication issue. As the brakes are rarely used on these EVs they don't get hot and...

Bad luck. There is quite a debate around the renewal of the lubricant in the reduction gear casing. Certainly here in Europe Nissan dealerships will often say it is sealed for life. Also the lubricant used is very specific and quite difficult to cross-reference. Also dealerships seem to know...

That is impressive. If you'd got back without it stopping you'd never have known just how close you'd come. That is interesting and makes perfect sense. Except that the story has always been that Leafspy shows total battery capacity whilst the dash shows useable. And It has always been a given...

Well Goldbrick, I too noticed an improvement in range 45,000kms ago! Now, in good weather, driving at anything up to 50mph I can manage about 90 miles on whatever is left in the battery, so a little less than you... But hills, etc will all play a part in that. If by chance you should stumble...

Hi Leftie, Yes I remember the New Zealand pages. I think they did a great job, five years ago. But unfortunately it seems nobody continued their monitoring and indeed graphing! Then of course all those Leafs got sold on to maybe less militant owners. Who knows the truth, maybe Ghosn, I'm sure...

Finally managed to get the picture to show up thanks to SageBrush's Tuto in another post. Not complicated at all!

Thanks Goldbrick. I believe I have now resolved the picture visibility thanks for SageBrush. The battery always returns to being fully balanced by the time it is fully charged, so I guess it is not beyond the BMS yet and hence not in the realm of fault codes. I'd like to hear from any other...

Ok, this is probably not much of a help as I have a completely different car (2015 30kWh) but I have had very similar issues with charging. Start then random stop and then later start and instant stop. Most recently I resolved it by picking a fried spider remains out of one of the communication...

What I'm getting at, I suppose, is that it would be very handy for Nissan to be able to say there is still 10% in there because, as you say, that would mean I have the 75% capacity battery reported by the bms... Whilst if I actually had a 65% battery plus a software con (sorry, update) well then...

Oh so the pic did work? Wow, I couldn't see it so I changed the hosting... Still can't see it! Is it still there? Thank you very much for getting back to me. I usually charge at 4kW from my solar, and usually keep it between 20 and 80% but I use every damn percentage when I need to... They...

Finally got the picture to show up, woo hoo. Thanks to SageBrush
