I would be bummed if that happened but I would question why Nissan would bother to send it to TN of all places if they didn't want to have a better look at it. Smyrna would be the logical place to bring it to if you were interested in researching the problem. With the $$ they have invested in...

I love it! If you are interested, I used Crazytalk7 on my Mac to make it. There is a windows equivalent also. I'm glad someone liked the vid. I was speaking with the salesperson who sold Sonic to me a few weeks after I posted the video. She didn't know it was a product of my twisted mind and...

Hi all. It has been quite a while since my last post but I wanted to provide an update on my former Leaf called Sonic. I had been googling the vin from time to time to see if my repurchased car appeared for sale anywhere. It appears it was sent from Arizona to Tennessee at some point and I am...

The forum and the topic is so monstrous, it is hard to keep up with where and when new info is being added. Thanks for catching me up.

Unconfirmed details of Nissan's battery capacity warranty: http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20130109/AUTO0104/301090398/Nissan-launching-production-Leaf-U-S-?odyssey=mod|newswell|text|FRONTPAGE|s Of note is the last paragraph confirming a 3 bar loss equates to 30% capacity loss. No source...

Just an update on the Phoenix ABC 15 interview that 3 Leaf owners participated in a few months back. I was told today that the interview should air on Monday, Jan 7 during the 10pm newscast. I'm not sure what direction the interview will head in since all 3 interviewed owners have since had...

Words of wisdom.

It also allows you to update charging stations on your center display (although rather poorly when compared to several smartphone apps that always seem to be more up to date).

Congrats on your new LEAF! Did your dealer set up Carwings for you during your orientation? If not ask them or EV support to do it for you. I just picked up a new Leaf (my second one) a few weeks ago and had the same issue. Carwings would not connect. I realized my dealer did not setup...

I wanted to let everyone know Nissan has heard my concerns and repurchased my car Sonic, this afternoon. Thanks to everyone that had a part in helping to make this happen (especially Tony, the Tempe Twelve and MNL). In my case, Nissan listened to my concerns and agreed to help me. I publicly...

Yanquentino, this is not an attack on you and I hope you don't perceive it in that manner. I believe that you love the Leaf and want to see EVs thrive as much as I do. We both approach the battery issue from different ends of the spectrum and the following is my argument for my concerns about...

Looks like This is Much Ado About SOMETHING Time to rewrite this page (to at least adjust the graphs to 84 miles per the service bulletin) http://www.casteyanqui.com/ev/capacity_kerfuffle/index.html Hopefully data will triumph over opinion.

It was my impression that GID readings were solid for LBW and VLBW and that these alarms were good indicators of actual range remaining. I don't own a GID meter so some help is appreciated if anyone can help me understand. Would this mean that a GID of 50 at LBW with a new Leaf could be (as an...

+1 Can't wait for the quantum physics line of questioning to come next ;) Do you generate a singularity in you Leaf every time you switch to ECO mode? Is your range the same over the entire multiverse, even if you didn't drive in all of them that day? Do you approach the event horizon at the...

If it is a gauge error, why aren't bars reappearing with cooler temps? Why would it only go one way? Could it be that the capacity levels have dropped below the "quick" 20% level of the degradation curve and have now leveled off for the slower death spiral toward that last 10%? These two factors...

With leases currently this low, after monthly gas savings, you're almost driving a new car for free. Of note is Ford's 10,500 mile per year limit on their lease agreement vs 12,000 for the LEAF. I hope Nissan goes to a short duration, lease only option for the LEAF in hot environments or at...

No worries, I can just get a new battery pack under warranty if i do this... according to the LEAF specialist at the dealership that services my LEAF. I get this chill up my leg just knowing Nissan will be there for me :roll:

m/kwh 5.8 and 5.6 - is the dash accurate for this? I had the software update between trips. My understanding is that m/kwh is about as good for info as the GOM. (Tony's Tempe Twelve test suggested that). I actually did this trip once and got 6.3m/kwh (which I didn't believe). Days in the...
