    New 2021 Leaf owner saying hi.

    Welcome to the Leaf @danelo ! I bought my 2022 Leaf in December of 2021, so I just had my 2 year anniversary. I also have an SV with the Tech pkg. I still love my Leaf. I don't place a lot of demand on it since I work from home. It's my around town car. I love not having to fill up...

    Formula E Racing this Sat on CBS

    Interesting. I'm gonna look for it on my channel guide and TiVo it if I find it. It would be cool to see a motor race with EVs! Thanks for the heads-up! p.s. found it! on at 11am Pacific time tomorrow morning for me, set to record.

    lane warning not working on 2022 leaf

    Yep that shaking the steering wheel is exactly what I get when I cross over the lane marker. Thanks. Yep that's the one. Next I'll have to figure out if my Leaf has Pro Pilot assist... ??? This is part of the adaptive cruise control - right? I haven't used that feature at all.. yet...

    First EV & Leaf / simple question about locking

    :D I'm learning to deal and change the settings as needed. But doing so with caution. I think the beeping doesn't *really* bother me a ton, it's that my husband gets concerned and then says stuff and then gets me worked up and on and on :D I'm sure that says more about my marriage...

    Counter argument to charge time naysayers

    HI All, I agree wholeheartedly. Granted I don't have a daily commute, much less a long daily commute. But I can't help but gloat a little every time my hubby has to take his car to the gas station and wait in line and then complain about how insanely expensive gas is right now. I really...

    lane warning not working on 2022 leaf

    I'm not sure if it's the same exact scenario, but my lane departure warning seems to go off only while traveling at speed and with my turn signal on. And I think only when another vehicle is in an adjacent lane and in my blind spot. BUT - I just remembered - that also I get what I think is a...

    Regular maintenance @ Dealership? Critical milestones?

    Thanks for asking this question. I too want to learn about what to use the dealership for and what I can do at a qualified Leaf mechanic in the the future. I have a 2022 Leaf too that I put into service mid December of 2021, so close to when you put yours into service. But mine only...

    First EV & Leaf / simple question about locking

    Hi LeftieBiker, yes, I've used the vertical-sliding mount in my Leaf for the seat belt and it helps, but I still get strangled by the seat belt. Not as much as my 1998 BMW did, but the seat belt still "travels up" and doesn't stay put. Cars are not designed for someone of my height and body...

    First EV & Leaf / simple question about locking

    Thanks for posting this topic. I have so many things to still learn about my 4 month Leaf. My 2022 auto-locks the door locks at some point after I get going. I think it's speed based. So the responder that said once up to 15 mi/hr - that tracks for me. And thanks to who posted...

    "Official" Nissan 24 to 40 kwh upgrades are here?

    I for one would love to see long range Teslas being available to rent. 1) it would promote EVs and 2) would strengthen the need for charging infrastructure IMO. 3) I would consider renting one for a vacation type trip. I would love to get my husband sold on the idea of him being "okay" with...

    reduction gear replacement

    Thanks LeftieBiker! The service adviser guy that handled the return of my car on Friday wasn't a 100% sure on my question regarding "was the whole transmission replaced". But there was a page in the paperwork showing an illustration of the unit that made it look like the whole thing was...

    Are there 2022 leafs for sale in the US?

    I like the "gun metal" color, but dislike the name :D I call it dark gray. That said, I really wanted the red or the blue color, but I'm very happy that I was able to buy a "dark gray" 2022 SV + Tech pkg car without waiting or ordering. Got to buy off the lot.

    reduction gear replacement

    Thanks for your reply. I'll ask what kind of transmission fluid they filled it up with when I pick up my car in an hour.

    reduction gear replacement

    HI Again All, So also perplexing to me is with all the tech and firmware that must be in this car which leads me to believe that there are a fair number of sensors and some kind of onboard diagnostic system - it is surprising to me that I never got any indication from the screen or dashboard...

    reduction gear replacement

    Thanks for your reply! I'm glad that the experts here feel that in likelihood this issue was taken care of in a complete fashion through full replacement. This is reassuring.

    reduction gear replacement

    Does it sound like the whole transmission was replaced or just some "gearbox"? Thanks for your reply!

    reduction gear replacement

    Thank-you! I find the idea of a 1 speed transmission intriguing. Interesting that perhaps the differences in things like temp, air pressure, etc. may have an impact on why sometimes it leaked and other times it did not. Thank-you for your reply.
