We recently leased a second LEAF (2013 SV premium package). The first LEAF (2012) has 36K miles / 28 months on it, so both my wife & I are very familiar with how it drives, feels, sounds, etc. However, from day one, the new LEAF (my wife is the primary driver) has exhibited a slight humming...

Here's what's happening: I use an END-time only timer. I have one timer set for 80% and one timer set for 100%. Based on the next day's anticipated needs, I assign one or the other timer. They are both set to END at 7:30am. This has been extremely reliable. Until yesterday, it's only...

I'm not even sure what this would be called, so let me explain what I'm trying to do. I'm not sure what to search for so I apologize if this has come up before, but I did try to search! Due to some logistical considerations (mainly a garage constructed to be the absolute minimum size which is...

I use an END-time only charging timer set for 6:30am. I've noticed that the charging actually completes between 2.5 to 3 hours prior to that time. Here is a recent sample of end times: 80% (should be 6:30am): 3:50 3:57 3:54 3:27 4:03 3:33 3:26 3:32 3:25 3:36 3:43 3:43 3:52 3:45 For 100%...

Now that I am the proud owner of a new LEAF, my new hobby is contacting local shopping centers (malls, etc.) and inquiring about whether they have EV charging stations at their locations. Once they get back to me, I take the opportunity to let them know that a wave of new EVs have started to be...

Has Nissan (or someone else) done this already? I read a lot of posts from people (prior to making a decision to order/buy a LEAF) that log their daily car trips in an attempt to determine whether their driving patterns would be LEAF friendly or not. It seems to me like a smartphone app would...
