    30kwh installed in a 2011 car?

    shhhhhh, it's true. Nissan has no more 24kwh battery, all replacement will be the 30kwh battery, and it's not the silly old lizard battery, but the genuine 2017 30kw that has slightly different chemistry. Just keep driving ;)

    Nissan Replaced my Battery after Warranty Expiration

    Hi I am in same boat, 6mos out of warranty, and wanting to know what baseline information they would offer this "Goodwill" program. I paid $100 just to have my battery tested at the dealer to have plan of record that my battery is marginal 2 weeks before Warranty expire. They told me I don't...

    The Battery Replacement Thread

    Updating on battery replacement effort (6/2011 delivery) No luck convincing Nissan dealer to help on replacement. 69 month usage 60,352 miles 9 bars (very weak top few bars where it drops only after 2 miles) Not sure if I have good original battery, or just not bad enough for warranty.

    The Battery Replacement Thread

    Well, went to the Dealer on the last day of 5yr warranty, knowing the 8th bar was near, paid $95 for battery check. It's at 9th bar as read from dash, No go, No debate, No fuzz, and No replacement. I was kinda of expecting that, so if anything, I have plan of record at Nissan, the easiest $95...

    How long 'til 4th bar drops?

    same here: 2 more days to go before 5yr warranty expire and at 53K miles. Sitting on 9th bar for the past 8 months. I can smell the 8th bar coming, but I think Nissan is not going give it to me :x .

    The Battery Replacement Thread

    My last 8th bar lost was in Jan. 16., and my 5 years is coming in Jun. That why I am feel I am so close, but probably not making it, and I don't do any abusive driving either. This is suckie on part of Nissan.

    The Battery Replacement Thread

    I have another 60 days or so to drop the 4th bar. You would think there's epidemic product failure when more 10% of battery failing under warranty. I am falling into the - a day too late or - a mile too short category.

    The Battery Replacement Thread

    Well, is the Battery Replacement Warranty less than 9 bars or 70% capacity? Assuming I don't have Leafspy app tools or any other tools. 9bar out of 12bars on dash reading is 75%, -- 8bar out of 12bars on dash reading is 66.6% (by division). So technically, at 9bar after some usage time can...

    Pics! New wheels, tires, dampers, subwoofer, tint, antenna

    "I appear to have taken about a 5% hit on efficiency (4.2 to 4.0 m/kwh) so far but we will see what happens when I stop racing it around..." I like it. You wheel size also increase by 4.4%, you miles travel vs. actual is lower also. No bad on efficiency lost.

    Future Decision for Leaf Owner (to invest or not)

    Let say you are into the 10 or 11th year driving the Leaf with 150,000 mile on the leaf. The cars has been great, saving you $24K in gas (assuming $4/gal at 25MPG). All other maintenance cost has been minimum, and expect so going forward. Now the battery capacity is degraded to 60%. Replacing...

    Why Leafs sell better in some communities than others

    On HWY 101 carpool lane stretch between Redwood city and Sunnyvale (Silicon Valley), I counted average about 10-12 Leafs traveling on the opposite direction every morning during carpool hour. This is just during the 20min drive. I also think there about same amount traveling along same direct as...

    Anyone get their CA HOV stickers?

    I got my car on 6/16, still waiting for plate and registration, so that I can begin HOV sticker application. The waiting is longer than expected Has anyone taken a chance to drive on HOV lane without the sticker? I am tempting. You have to think CHP would know zero emission vehicles can...
