Anyone tried this WiFi OBD2 reader: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wifi-WLAN-OBDII-OBD2-Wireless-Scan-Diagnostic-Code-Reader-for-iphone-ipad-ipod-/150850959449?pt=Motors_Automotive_Tools&hash=item231f6af859&vxp=mtr" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; It's a lot thinner with an extension...

Well, my quest to duplicate the SL's superb LED lighting has finally ended. I have bought some CREE LED headlights to replace my halogen H13 hi-lo beam lamps. There were no instructions in the package. 3 wires to be plugged onto an adapter: +hi, +lo, -ground. Since there was no H13 tail to plug...

This looks like a nice unit: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wifi-WLAN-OBDII-OBD2-Wireless-Scan-Diagnostic-Code-Reader-for-iphone-ipad-ipod-/150850959449?pt=Motors_Automotive_Tools&hash=item231f6af859&vxp=mtr" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Wifi, already has the extension built-in so it...

Who here would pay for a 50$ charge? I guess they figured filling up with gas is around 50$, and so should an electric charge.

No, 50$ to use the parking spot in front of the charger, at every single visit. No mulla, no juice.

In Plattsburgh (upstate New York), the Nissan dealer used to charge for the L2, but got asked by Nissan to back off. So now, they will have you pay a 50$ fee to use the parking spot in front of the charger (charger is free, parking is not). Crazy right? Well, since they have the ONLY charger in...

Here's a nice video from one of our Quebec EV Association members, with Santa Claus delivering a Nissan Leaf to a new lucky owner, and having fun doing it!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH38oG3BtTg I own a white Leaf, and my kids are -convinced- Santa decided to buy one after seeing ours in...

That doesn't sound right... Blow hot air into your face, and your shins won't be cold anymore? I've seen people use 75W infrared heat bulbs (like ones used for reptiles cages) which take up very little power, and the spot heating works very well.

Are you worried that running over a hitch bar might perforate the underside, and that your Leaf will burst into flames? Because I've had the same thought! I've looked at a few accident reports for the Nissan Leaf, and ... no fires reported. Anyone willing to take one for the team, and run over...

Never mind. I figured it out. The OPEN button for the CD also serves as TILT, which tilts the screen when held pressed for a few seconds.

Uh huh.... So, what are these different settings, and how do we access them? Never saw that in the menus....

That's absolutely horrible! I can't even imagine how much corroded this is going to get with all the sand and salt on the roads in winter up here in Canada!! What a huge design flaw this is; never seen this on any car, ever. And it looks terrible in white! I think I'm going to spray some tar in...

I was told this is normal by the dealer: Really? No plastic protection, dirt and snow accumulating inside the wing is normal?? 2013 Leaf SV, both rear wheels are missing the plastic cover inside the wing facing forward. The front wheels have both, and the rear wheel well has the rear...

Well, I've had mine installed for 3 days now, and it works like a charm. Had an electrician install it outdoors, and the 8/3 wire runs 60' long. The longest part was hiding the wiring under the aluminium panels, but I had already been quoted 450$ for the job (including all the material and...

The manual is WRONG. They are H13 dual beam headlights. :)
