    HOW HOT HAS YOUR BATTERY TEMP BARS GONE?

    Oh man, I was hoping that would last well forever.

    What is your Average miles per kwh?

    3.7 Lifetime of the car, I've owned it for a few years now. 4.2 around town back and forth to work, minimal highway use. Mine's a 17 SV with the bigger 17" wheels and non LRR tires, I'm thinking of swapping to 16" wheels when the tires need replaced in a year or so I'm guessing, probably about...

    Battery Degradation of a high mileage Leaf

    Reading this thread makes me want to baby my newer battery. The symptoms of battery cell imbalance suck, that's exactly what my 30 kWh battery did before it got replaced with the 40. It was much worse during winter, under 40 F and you'd have to drive it slow everywhere, under 20 F and it was...

    MP3 player won't remember

    I started using an old iPod, it remembers my place. I stuffed it up in the dash and leave it connected. So far so good.

    HOW HOT HAS YOUR BATTERY TEMP BARS GONE?

    My 2017 with a 40 kilowatt hour battery pack barely moves if at all. I charged today giving it about 50% x fill-up. I started with six temp bars and ended with six bars. It was about 80° outside Fahrenheit. I believe the newer batteries are built differently. My old 30 kW pack had no problems...

    MP3 player won't remember

    Sometimes my mp3 player will remember the last track and spot that it was at. Other times it starts playing completely from the beginning. I've tried using different sticks, same thing. 2017 SV w nav.

    Battery warranty replacement claim - how to begin?

    Update, took my car in to the dealership in January, new battery failed, they ordered another battery, got it back today with new battery today. Guess I meter gives a 160 range. So relieved.

    Battery warranty replacement claim - how to begin?

    Good to know. My original date was December 31st 2022. Now when I talk to corporate I'll have a little more info on what to ask and why. Thank you.

    Battery warranty replacement claim - how to begin?

    I'm still waiting since early August. The car has low cells so when it's below freezing it's barely drivable and around 20 it just starts and turtle mode. Nissan corporate can't provide me a tracking number for my battery yet they assure me February 10th it'll be there at the dealership. Sure

    2016-2017 model year 30 kWh bar losers and capacity losses

    And that's a winner, lost the 9th bar 7-29. Kinda surprised, I figured it would hang on forever just to make me mad. I lost the 10th bar at the end of last summer so the previous bar didn't make it a whole year. :D I drove the car normal and kept it fully charged.

    Sudden Turtle Mode in Very Cold Weather

    I will be majorly disappointed if my car makes it to next winter with 9 bars still. Luckily the SOH dropped nearly 1% even in the cooler spring months at least according to Leaf Spy., 68.5% last time I checked. And I've tried, no issues with the warmer weather and turtling.

    Driver Door Handle Problem

    I drilled a hole from the bottom and put in a machine screw. It's held up well over the past fall and winter. I tried JB weld several times and it eventually came loose.

    Sudden Turtle Mode in Very Cold Weather

    Wow that really stinks, I can't imagine having to go up a mountain in mine. My 17 did the same thing today, 4 temp bars and it was 45F outside and I started with a full charge so I thought I would be OK. I was driving on flat highway at about 75 with a good headwind and sure enough turtle time...
