+1 Certainly disheartening that Nissan has been completely mum about this change, and why they felt it was necessary. The upgrade will also certainly increase the sales of friction brake pads. Tesla changed the regen algorithm on my S as well--very limited regen when the battery is cold...

Back to topic; first cool day here this fall (40 F) with drizzle requiring heat and defrost. Didn't think to preheat. The 25 mi 45 mph round trip took me down to 3 bars. Can't wait to see what happens when it really gets cold and I'm on my regular 30 mi round trip commute. No worries the...

Exactly. I was hoping to get 5 years out of the Leaf for my 30 mi commute, but at the current rate of degradation, I'm not sure I'll make through this winter (and I haven't even lost the 1st bar yet, and have only 16k miles). Around here the winter range @ 80% chg with wall preheat at one end...

Carwings is misbehaving again this week for me. Took three times to succeed this morning. I've noticed that if I schedule a climate timer via the app for right around 7 am, it often fails; imagine that they are still short of server capacity for peak traffic.

Started out @ 80% GOM 65 with preheat from 32F garage. 10 mi to work @ 35F. Side trip mid day over to another meeting after a bit of a warmup to 40F. Parked again for 2 hours. GOM @ 36 mi at start of last leg. No heat for those last 5 miles since those final miles always go quickly; arrived...

Probably the reason here in Boulder. A ton of Leafs have hit the road this past year. I can turn climate on and off on the weekends, but trying to do it at 7 am on a workday almost never works anymore. Nissan needs to get this fixed before they start asking us to pay for the service.

Here we go again: "Your request to start climate control for MyLeaf failed." Just like last year, as soon as it turned cold Carwings fails to activate the remote heating cycle when set to turn on using the climate control timer in the Apple app.

Climate timer set via app failed to deploy this AM.

Well, no platinum for me. Last check was 2.17 mi/kWh off the wall due to 5 F mean temps. Starting to get range anxiety...

For me, the server was sluggish at 7:15a MST and unresponsive around 5:30p MST. Interestingly, when I got to the car, the heat was on, despite both attempts failing according to the screen, and confirmed by messages sent to my e-mail account: Nissan LEAF update:Climate Control Auto Off Thu...

Currently unable to remote start climate control via the web app. "Sending request" message displayed since request was sent in about 5 minutes ago. Also seemed to take a long time to complete this morning (used the iPad/iPhone app then).

Thanks for monitoring the situation. I've switched from setting the timer via the app the evening before, to turning on the heat when I first get up, and haven't had any more problems or communication failures since the 28th.

My parking brake doesn't usually release when I press on the accelerator pedal, but I hadn't previously heard that your safety belt has to be on. Could be my problem...I'll have to investigate further.

Agree, it's starting off just like last time -- a few days of intermittent problems which then led up to a complete outage. Hopefully Nissan can nip this episode in the bud and get a permanent fix installed.

Also remember that there is a setting that sets charging or heating as the priority. (I think it is under Carwings Settings if I remember correctly). If charging is set as priority, the heat may not come on if your battery is still charging and you are plugged in to 120V (not enough amps for...

Had another Carwings Remote timer app failure this morning. Timer set OK last night, but "difficulty communicating with the car" at 6:45 am. No fun driving with no heat at 11 degrees, but without preheat, too much range loss to safely make the round trip (if I have to heat the water bath from...

Yes, Homelink is like a universal remote for your TV. I t learns what signals your garage door transmitter sends, and then can send them from the car. Nothing to do with Carwings.

Remember that the climate control timer in the Apple App or Nissan web page sets the time the heat comes on, and the heat stays on for up to a couple of hours if you are plugged in and the climate control has priority; if I remember correctly, it only stays on for 15 minutes if car is not...

Yes, cutting off the ESVE will result in the heater running on battery power. Better to leave ESVE plugged in and in ready to charge mode. When heater comes on (CC timer or Carwings command--whenever the latter really works again), the ESVE will power up and run the heater on wall power. If...

The problem is with the servers at Nissan. All communications with your car go over a cellular connection. You can set the climate control timers in the car to turn on the heat, and these work regardless of the presence or absence of a cell signal. It's a pain when your schedule is irregular...
