I cry for the earth when I think of how many tens (hundreds?) of millions of auto AC units have been irresponsibly dealt with over the years. (No sarcasm intended, only a bit of exaggeration; I'm a proud tree-hugger)

Man - I am part reptile. I am fine with driving in 100 degree weather without AC. (I'm here because AC on my 2015 just went out and trying to troubleshoot at bit, as dealer says they think it's the AC High Pressure line and want $700 (Down from initial $845). Why (do I need to get it fixed...

My 2015 Leaf S AC with 75k stopped blowing cold air recently. Does anyone in the Los Angeles area have recommendations for dealerships or specific shops that are best for the Leaf. (Even dealerships can vary with their level of EV service experience.) Part of me is considering to take it to a...

It’s funny - whenever I compare the cargo area of a Leaf to a Bolt in a forum, people have always come back talking about the cargo area with the seats -down-. While I completely agree that the cargo area in a Bolt with the seats down is decent for sure, it’s moreso the cargo area with seats...

Uggh. I hate to say it, but this is why I’m taking delivery of a Bolt in a couple weeks, instead of getting another Leaf. (Not interested in spending Arriya money, once all aspects of the purchase are figured in to the mix). If the Leaf had CCS, I would have gone with the Leaf, for the...

I currently drive a 2015 Leaf, and I’m getting a Bolt EUV in a few weeks, theoretically. If the Leaf had CCS, I probably would have gotten a Leaf. With six years of leaf ownership, and over 200 DCFC sessions between two Leafs, I definitely know first hand the challenges that Chademo can and...

Thanks ! Yeah, a Leaf S (40 kWh).

My elderly mother has a new 2023 Leaf S. My 2015 Leaf gives me a warning at 20%. Does the 2023 Leaf S do the same ? (She has misplaced the manual, LoL) Figured it would be a very easy question on here. Thanks.

Leat S is $28,040. The $7,500 rebate would get you to about $20k. How do you get to to "just over $16k" ?

The Bolt EUV has Much more rear legroom than a leaf, but both Bolt models have noticeably less cargo space. When we make Costco runs in the Leaf we have no problem fitting all our stuff in the back, but with our Bolt we'll be putting the TP / Papertowels in the large back seat.

I owned a Leaf from 2015 to 2018, and now again from 2021 till now. I've Fast-charged over 200 times between two vehicles. I'm not a 'road trip' person, and I definitely wouldn't waste my time doing a 'real' roadtrip in my 2015 Leaf, but even for moderate trips, say 170 miles, Chademo is a...

I’ve had a Leaf for years, and it’s never bothered me, but my forgetful 78 year old mother just bought a Leaf and she is having the hardest time remembering how to shift in to gear. To be clear, she’s only spent fifteen minutes behind the wheel, with me as instructor, in an empty parking lot...

Thanks. Based on the great document that is posted in the beginning of this thread, I'm a bit leery of old leafs with 12 bars due to possible 'resets', but with only 7,000 miles, and if the SOH and condition of the car seem to support that, then you're probably right. And of course when I...

Yeah, I definitely looked at how many QCs were done when I went to look at the Leaf I bought last week, and I'll do the same when I look at this one with 7,000 miles today. Thanks !

Thanks all, and My apologies for lack of clarity. I want to 'like' your posts, but looks like this forum doesn't use that function. Yes, my concern with this particular car-for-sale is specifically that having only 7,000 miles at five years old it seems like there is a chance that it went...

A lower price would be great, but it's not the driver of my question. Just wondering if a battery that has been sitting a long time uncharged could somehow end up in a condition where it shows really good, but drops unusually fast. As I mentioned, I saw someone post that Porsche's battery...

Question about buying a super low-mileage Leaf. Just bought a used Leaf for my wife and now I'm looking for me. I have found a 2016 with only 7,000 miles. It has 12 battery bars. I've read the articles on here, including that great large document, and I have Leafspy Pro. My question is...

Hi Sagebrush. Thanks for your reply. Funny thing, I just saw your info at the bottom of the post. I’m actually buying the leaf possibly as a placeholder. I’m considering selling my model three which I bought in September 2018 so that I can get a Kia EV6 and I wouldn’t even consider it except...

Thanks all for your replies. I have narrowed it down to a 2015 Leaf S with 45k miles and 11 bars for $10,400, and a 2013 Leaf S (built 10/2013) with 23k miles but only 8 bars for $9k. (The 2015 has always resides in SoCal, so moderate weather) The 2015 seems like the better way to go for...

I did read the first post. It was very helpful. Yeah, I did notice the points about the manufacture date, and this one I’m looking at is after that date. I’m going to take Leafspy with me. Is 11 bars as suspicious as 12 ? I mean, if a BMS reset always sets it to 12 and they’ve only had the...
