I've noticed (by driving) that my 2012 doesn't have the capacity it used to (last winter). Using the Leaf Spy app, I took this screenshot of the status of the cells and such:

Any idea what might have happened here and how to make it better? I've always practiced good battery management, including mostly charging to 80% but every few weeks or so doing a 100% charge; only doing DCQC a few times and only when it's not hot; when left alone for 2 weeks, left it sitting at 50% and not plugged in.
Thanks,

Things to notice:
- This is after an 80% charge, not 100%
- One cell pair has lower voltage than the others. It is consistent every time I check my status with the app
- I have recently done a couple of deep cycles to try to make it better -- down as low as 15% and up to 100%
- After only 10 months, I'm at 93.71% capacity and 86.09% on the mysterious health-o-meter
- Only 13 DCQCs, and the temperature bars have never been over 7.
