    Official Tesla Model S thread

    It should be easier to find nice clean ones under 30k now. A year ago we got our first 2 100k cars for 29k. And this year we found a clean 30k under 100k miles and a signature. However my area has lot more choices than other areas. A little drive may be necessary and some waiting and good luck.

    Leaf Quick Release Hitch for bike racks or cargo

    Anyone in Southern California need one? I’m not longer going to need to haul with my leaf and can take it off to sell if you want one. What to going rate for these? I used mine a few times to move my bikes.

    Warning: Battery Replacement Cost Increase (now $8500)

    I didn't read all the details but just wanted to note a few things. Did you start a documented claim with your dealer before the 5 year mark of when the car was originally sold/in service? I'm guessing your battery replacement warranty expired in sometime 2017? Because if you did you might be...

    Thanks I'll check them out. I recently purchased a dual charger (80A) tesla and though about upgrading my unit. However there are some HPC's that are too bad in price and might be easier to just pick up one. I thought I needed a 100A contactor to support a 80A continuous load?

    I dont think this was intended for me? I dont have any issues with mine. When I said I tinker with it I added wifi, maybe do some additional upgrades in the future. Glenn, your service has been A+++ Is there any good 100 amp cables and contactors?

    Chris's units are also prebuild. Making your own requires soldering. Just giving people choices. That being said, I have one of Chris's full units, and I also tinker with the one I got from you Glenn.

    Just hit 8 bars with $8,000 owed = advice needed!

    Depending how much you like driving EV another option would be having someone replace the cells in your battery with the packs from a newer one. Depending how cheaply you can find a pack from a totaled Leaf and the cost for someone who can do the swap. EV's seem to be really growing popularity...

    Just hit 8 bars with $8,000 owed = advice needed!

    I had a April 2013 SV, The battery dropped pretty bad, almost like the Pre March batteries. However it did not look the 9th bar before the warranty expired. Range has gotten pretty bad and was starting to become an issue till the car got hit and totaled. It almost feels like the car had 1/2...

    Tesla Supercharging promised but not delivered

    Contact Ingineer at the Teslamotorclub forum. He's helped salvage cars enable super charging. I think he was also very active in Leaf community also.

    Official Tesla Model S thread

    I have not read the entire thread. However the recent post seem to revolve around battery replacement. I recently purchased a 102k mile 2013. Battery was replaced around January 2018. I’m still trying to confirm all the data since the previous owner was not very technical. I do see in the...

    Is a used Leaf suitable for me?

    There are lots of charging stations around here and more are being added all the time. April 2013+ are supposed to have the battery and degradation should be less of an issue for further commutes. Get the PlugShare app for you phone to see what's available. Work charging can be a little...

    Post Your Battery Degradation Results

    Posts I've seen show that post April build have a newer battery that should last longer. My friend has a April build one that seems to be degrading at a fast rate. We were hoping the last bar will drop before the warranty expires. However it currently looks like it will miss and drop after 5...

    Anaheim used dealer with lots of Leafs, low prices

    I got one for my friend there. Good luck getting the cheap ones on the website. They sell very fast. If you want a cheap one I think your best going there and asking them what they have received and are prepping. They are very reasonable on price and selection that way.

    LEAFSpy Newbie Questions

    Good question, I think it was a response for some other question. I don't really remember too well as it was too many months ago. I'm guessing this..... For a few days after my battery was replaced I was not getting the 80 or so miles on a full charge, I was trying to not charge to 100% and...

    How To: Reverse Backup Camera for SV Model w/ OEM Telematics

    My wires were only in the kick panel, like others that posted, they did not run to the back of the car so I spliced in there. Have you tried checking ebay or someone recycling leaf's to get your missing connector and wires?
