Given the driving distance you are talking about, the Leaf should work fine for you. They are definitely reliable cars. And you can get one dirt-cheap, as they have horrible resale value. Here's my story. I have had my 2011 SL for just under 5 years now and have literally not had a single...

My 2011 SL has lost 3 capacity bars. I was hoping it would lose the 4th bar by November 11th, its 5 year in-service anniversary, so I could get a replacement battery. Unfortunately, that did not happen. I can usually go about 40 miles before the low battery warning comes on ... So here's my...

I've had my 2011 SL for about 3-1/2 years now (since 2/23/13). I've only have just over 14,000 miles on it but have lost 3 battery capacity bars. I'm hoping that I will lose the 4th bar by August before it reaches the end of the 5 year battery degradation warranty. From a 100% charge with all...

I received my new card today and it works like a charm. I ordered it from Courtesy Nissan in Richardson, TX. But for those of you who are interested, I noticed tonight that the 2013 update is now available for our cars! Check out nissannavigation.com. My timing was off about a week! Oh...

Yeah Viktor, unfortunately everything is integrated into the nav screen. Right now I have no radio, no climate control display, etc. The back-up camera is the only thing that works. One dealer I spoke with said they didn't have a listing for the card --- just the whole unit for $6000.00! I...

Hi all, I received some more info on the SD card today. I contacted Nissan (their Leaf division) and they researched this for me. It turns out that you do not need the original card --- the update is all you need. The problem is, it has been due out for quite some time now and they have no...

This is excellent info! I am going to stop by the dealer with this info. I guess I may just have to get this card now and then the update card later on as well. That's the big question right now! I certainly appreciate all the quick responses. What a great forum!!!

Thanks DarkStar. I called the dealer earlier in the week and they told me to contact Navteq. I called them and the person I spoke with said there is a new release out this month but it won't be available for purchase at least until next month. She also told me that the SD card should run...

Hey everyone! First post here. I just picked up a 2011 Leaf this past Saturday and love it! I have the same problem as one of the previous posters --- my car did not have the NAV SD card in it when I got it. I'm hoping someone on here can let me know what the part number of that card is. I...
