With my Leaf coming off lease soon, I'm trying to plan ahead for no surprises. Any advice for the inspection? What sort of things are they looking for and what will they charge? E.g. our front has some kerb scrapes and there are some small side panel scrapes. I'm wondering if it's best to...

Don't get me wrong. I'll take 3 hours ;). Just trying to think ahead and wondering where the costs are. If I can avoid a new cable run, that's probably the way I'll go. But if I have to run new cable, then if I put a subpanel in the (tiny barely single car) garage, I can hook up whatever...

LOL, I can imagine having that exact conversation! My teenage daughter is far more interested, so far, but I'm sure that too will change ;)

Thanks for the many suggestions. I'll be taking it quietly with Jane over the next couple of weeks. For now my current strategies are: charging to 100% on the weekend as we have lots of off-peak electricity, and are also likely to drive further Using the car for all family trips Recruited my...

Thanks, yes, I responded in that thread. Very informative. I'll see if I can repro accordingly in my car tomorrow.

@planet4ever, your state table seems to describe what I was reporting here: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=12230&p=280950" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I think I erroneously did BPP after doing double push to open all doors on the door handle and then sitting...

Thanks, I missed that thread (though I did find a similar but different one about being stuck at a red light). Not sure if I had a green car with arrows. I'll look for that next time. I definitely had my foot on the brake. Most fascinating to me was that pressing P would not take it out of...

Its fun how our devices train us. As a young software engineer know-it-all, I remember helping my mum on her old Windows 3.1 laptop years ago. She cautioned me as I rushed ahead: "I find it works better if I wait until the such-and-such screen comes up before hitting the next key". "Don't worry...

Good question. Today when it happened I was on a slight backward slope and it seemed to roll back when I took my foot off the brake when it was displaying N -- but it wasn't a good time to release it completely to verify either way, and its possible that I had most recently tried to put it in R...

I'm guessing the car will train me out of this, but I've done it at least twice and my wife did it once. Problem: Car shows "N" (neutral) on the display. Shifting to R/D still shows N. Pressing P still shows N. Solution: Power off, then On. Then selection works as expected. Troubleshooting...

Many thanks for all the advice and comments! Glad this is not just my situation ;) I'm wondering if its worth charging to 100% for the first few weeks to help mitigate range anxiety. In all likelihood she'll never get close, but having the numbers all a bit higher are likely worth the extra...

I finally got a leaf. I was on the original wait list but the timing didn't work out. But Thursday we took delivery of a Slate SL with the Premium package (sound + cameras). My goal is for this car to replace my wife's Subaru Forester for her ~200 miles/week driving around town. Let's call my...

In the fwiw department, I had scheduled a quote for Sun June 20th (see earlier in this thread) and got two confirmation emails yesterday, but today a rep from AeroVironment called and said there had been a mistake and they weren't doing any quotes before July 1. Back to the end of the queue for...

Just scheduled mine for Sunday 20 June in Marin County / San Francisco area. Was surprised they would do a weekend. Have the confirmation email from Nissan (" thanks for setting up your home charging dock assessment with AeroVironment. your appointment is now scheduled for...") and a 2nd Nissan...
