    FM Radio Reception

    Ha Ha. Of course in the UK DAB is probably more preferable though I don't think the new leafs have that yet? I'm happy with spotify and other mobile streaming apps + bluetooth - great quality & I have unlimited 3G+ data But FM as a backup would be good to get fixed

    Is there a way to display song info from a Samsung Galaxy S3

    For spotify there is a modified app on XDA that works with my S4 and Leaf http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44108915&postcount=177" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

    FM Radio Reception

    The FM radio in my 2012 MY UK Nissan leaf seems very insensitive. In particular it mostly struggles to pick up much other than the 4 main BBC stations. Local independent radio has very weak/dodgy signal and interference. It's been like it for a while - tbh I mostly use spotify or other...

    Open Vehicle Monitoring System

    Just as an aside, the OBD-II port is in a slightly annoying place for constant use. I've not yet tried a slim right angle cable yet (I was trying to use an old OBD scanner even just for the regular can, which supports some CAN buses but couldn't figure out the leaf protocol)

    Open Vehicle Monitoring System

    I'm certainly not short of interest, just time. I don't know a whole lot about this area, but tacking the specific point about logging, I think the first inhibitor is the leaf's use of 4 CAN buses - I think they include - regular canbus (like normal cars) - EV specific - Nav system -...

    LEAF's Top speed?

    Most I've seen on the readout is 102 - probably stops around 101 on the flat. When compared with GPS tracking this appeared to be a genuine 93mph tbh my speedo more often is in the 55-65 range....

    Not convinced MY 2012 latest updates fix carwings figures?

    Thanks - helpful. I think it's definately a case of capturing more "proof" together for the dealer and see if I can persuade them to take it up with nissan tech support.... I know the guys there seem very passionate about the leaf and helpful so hopefully just a little persuasion might at least...

    Not convinced MY 2012 latest updates fix carwings figures?

    So when I had the recalls done I did ask in general terms about the SD update and was just told my car already had the required fixes. He showed me a list of fixes for the 2011 and said based on my vin I already had them... Certainly I have had no real problems with carwings communications...

    Not convinced MY 2012 latest updates fix carwings figures?

    I think the dash is more realistic, carwings seems too low -- though I wish the dash had 2 digits after the decimal point (and indeed the carwings web ui too -- though at least you can calculate from the CSV) I have a MY2012 (UK) car and have already been to the dealer to get P1270 P1272...

    Not convinced MY 2012 latest updates fix carwings figures?

    Yesterday I charged my 2012 MY leaf (UK) to 100% and drove in total 73.9 miles according to the odometer. When I got back to the house I had an indicated 5 miles remaining, having gone past "Low battery". I do have the APril 2012 recalls applied (which do change the in-dash range estimates, and...

    Grabby Brakes?

    Hit this problem today. I was in a very slow moving queue and it happened at ~2 mph. A little surprising. It comes across as a software bug. I think the scenario is definately that of continual braking at varying pressures and at some point it goes into this mode. If the pedal is...

    UK Budget 2012 - Benefit in Kind on Company Car tax

    Sadly the 0% rate for company cars on EVs doesn't continue past 2015. This had already been announced to end in 2015, but the reverting rate had been expected to be lower, or the rate continued. Somewhat disappointing https://plus.google.com/104422026240308775849/posts/WWgFRBmh3iY"...

    BUY NOW or LATER

    Interesting discussion. I must admit I'm facing a similar dilemma at the high level-- whether to go for one or not, though admittedly a lot of finer details differ - over here in the UK I think I worked out our "gas" (petrol) prices are around $8/US gallon - My current car is a yr 2000 ford...
