    FREE 16" LEAF Spare Tire

    Anyone interested in a 16" spare tire please PM me. Totally FREE and no catch. Just want it gone as I no longer have the LEAF and it could still be useful to someone who take their LEAF on longer trips. Never had a need to use it by the way. Thanks

    Toyota bZ4X Recall - Wheels falling off

    And one by one the dominoes keep on falling... EV platform based recalls could be attributed to lack of maturity in the 1st gen designs from the newcomers but wheels falling off??? Come on Toyota! I would have expected better from you!!! All this is not creating a good aura on the EV...

    Regular maintenance @ Dealership? Critical milestones?

    Hi, My new LEAF is nicely maturing and about to reach 7500 miles in couple weeks. Looking at the service schedule I don't see anything critical that need to be done at the dealership so I'll probably just go to a local tire shop and get them to rotate tires for me. Main issue here is not only...

    Counter argument to charge time naysayers

    Just occurred to me this morning. Since I got my LEAF last December I drove about 4500 miles which would equate to about 15 gas station fill ups in my old ICE vehicle. 15 x ~5 minutes per fill = 75 minutes give or take. Over the course of this year I expect I will be saving at least 4 to 5 hours...

    Head unit crash / reboot - Lost settings / presets

    I have a 2 month old SL+ and had 2 occasions where the head unit crashed and simply returned after 10-15 seconds reboot. I didn't mind this at all thinking hey its much better than my work PC... Today I was hooked to CarPlay and having a phone call going on and the head unit went into a...

    DIY Seat Memory Function?

    Hi, I drive a 2022 SL+ with motorized driver seat and miss having memory recall function for seat and side mirrors. Was there ever a trim level in any location (US, Europe or Japan) that provided seat & mirror memory recall? If so I am wondering if I could try to source the electronics that...

    L2 charging from ICE generator possible?

    Hi, I am sure I am not the first to think of this and ask the question but I couldn't find a thread on this from prior discussions. Apologies if I am missing them. I am considering investing in a whole house backup power generator to cover for those occasional utility company shutdowns...

    BYD Han... How do they get 314 miles out of 65 kWh battery?

    I was checking out this news article this morning and the range "claim" caught my eye... https://insideevs.com/news/557433/150000-byd-han-production/?fbclid=IwAR0zIIm0P4gUwHlGhOqgMV4gKfN7udQ76XbESmj5yAgDzM34aNKgPkI-dPI Not sure how this range is tested / certified vs our EPA certified...

    Ideas for historical battery data elements?

    Hi, New Leaf owner here and I have been reading all the very valuable insights shared on this forum by many. Thank you for all the contributions. I would like to set up a spreadsheet to collect historical battery related information as I see many of you are doing (great charts btw!). I have...

    Taking driver's license test in an EV

    My daughter is going to take her driver's license test soon and our LEAF is the only available vehicle for her to drive. I could not see any indication on the DMV site that limits the use of EV for these tests. Clearly, all driver assist tech need to be switched off but aside from that I can't...

    GAS Stations as POI on Nav...

    Anyone else also find this funny in a sad way? interestingly there is a EV Charge Stations POI category which one can replace the GAS Stations POI button which by default occupies that prime spot on the main POI screen... I can imagine the head unit must be used in a number of Nissan vehicles...

    Is it ok to leave EVSE plugged into 240V all the time?

    Hi, My apologies if this has been covered already. New Leaf owner here and very happy about it so far. I have the 14-50 installed in my garage and completed my first charge last night. My question is whether it is ok to leave the Nissan supplied EVSE cable plugged into the 14-50 all the time...
