    2011 LEAF always charges to 100%

    :oops: :oops: :oops: Well, I would have saved myself a red face (or three) if I had read the manual first. Some time in the distant past, I had set that 80% timer - and then forgot about it. I just got used to pressing the "Immediate Charge" button and having it act as the 100% override...

    2011 LEAF always charges to 100%

    My LEAF is almost always charged on the Blink EVSE in my garage. I don't use the timers, just plug it in. By default, it charges to 80%. When I want to head out to the flying field, I'll push the override button by the driver's-side door, so that it charges up to 100%. In the past few weeks...

    Blue Leaf spotted in Redmond Town Center

    I do know that mine got a firmware upgrade when I took it in last time. I didn't know about the brakes thing. I've noticed that, and I'll ask a dealer when I finally pick one. You may not get an answer as to which dealer on this thread, as I doubt many people will see it. Try searching the...

    Blue Leaf spotted in Redmond Town Center

    So whom did you patronize? And why? I sure wish Stadium Nissan hadn't gone out of business. I think they were a really cool dealership. I'm still trying to figure out where I should take my LEAF for servicing, now that they're gone.

    Bike Rack

    Nah. I don't have anywhere near a six-pack, and I didn't have any trouble at all. :lol:

    Bike Rack

    Torklift's hitch is not in the way of anything that would need to be removed for servicing. (Well, I'm not sure about the bumper, but I doubt there's a problem there either.) The mounting rails are attached to the two frame members, and the crosspiece is immediately forward of the rear bumper...

    Bike Rack

    Advice on torquing hitch nuts? I picked up a hitch receiver at the Torklift store in Kent yesterday, installed it this morning. Overall, a piece of cake, except I'm slow. It helps to have four hands when lifting it into position - son #1 helped. It's bolted to the frame with six bolts...

    A Great Dealership Folds

    I drove by Stadium Nissan in Seattle today. It was closed. Gone. Here's a link to a story about its closing. The Stadium Nissan URL now links to Seattle Nissan, which, according to their website, is 20 miles south, in Auburn. That used to be Rairdon Nissan of Auburn. ??? Stadium Nissan was...

    Blue Leaf spotted in Redmond Town Center

    I have a blue LEAF, with the big decals, but haven't been up near Rose Hill lately. Have been in a lot of places, though. Southcenter, Carnation, just bopping around town. Funny: in the few days after we got ours, my wife was out walking the dog and saw an identical one in our neighborhood...

    Car won't turn off

    I stopped by the Nissan dealer this afternoon, and was talking about new-car problems with [-----]. He asked how mine was doing - I said just fine - I have only 250 miles on it so far, and my only problem is that Carwings on my car and Carwings on my PC have two different passwords, and won't...

    Carwings oddities, interesting tidbits, and problems

    I think you are being generous. ;)

    Carwings oddities, interesting tidbits, and problems

    Well, I must be dense. I cannot get it to work. On my PC, I went into Carwings and changed my password. I went to my car and changed the Carwings password there. Car tried to connect, couldn't, told me I had to establish an account. So I changed it back to the original one. It connected. I...

    Carwings oddities, interesting tidbits, and problems

    We have no smartphone yet, so are using the PC version of Carwings. It worked the day after we brought the car home. Since then (a week ago), when I press the Refresh button, it pops up an error box that says vehicle status: request failed [our car name] detected a problem and was unable to...

    Re: Packet's signature I also have Firefox 4. I guess I'll report this issue to them. And also try it with v5, to see what it does there. Packet, what happens if you change the size to a different value? Try it, and we can report back to you... Note that the page containing BBCode...

    Yet One More From Seattle

    I think deliveries are speeding up. We took delivery of our LEAF last week. Within three days, my wife, while walking the dog, saw two others identical to ours (!) in the neighborhood. She wondered why I didn't tell her I was going for a drive - then saw two old people in the car! So - three...

    Panic Button on fob is too sensitive

    We don't have our LEAF yet, so I have no idea whether this will work or not - but it may be sufficient. On the other hand, it may make the problem worse. Cut a section of bicycle inner tube and slip it over the fob. Put dots of different color hobby paint or nail polish on the tube over the...

    Question, Packet -- Is it Firefox on my PC that's messing with your signature, or does it really look like this? If that's how it's supposed to look, then I would surmise that it, and your forum name, are somehow related to your occupation. :?
