Hi all,
Just bought some tires (for 16" steel wheels) that were a pretty good deal so I thought I would pass it along.
Kumho Solus TA31 All- Season Radial Tire-205/55R16. 60k mile tire. Consumer Reports ratings are pretty good, especially the rolling resistance which is an "excellent". Same as...
Whoa, as it so happens my Leaf's battery capacity reading spiked up after a recent long distance trip across Florida (Jacksonville to St Petersburg). It had been hovering around 46.4 AHr for Nov/Dec. When I checked on Dec 26th it was back up to 47.7. Today is it 47.5.
Perhaps it knows my 8 bar...
Hi all,
I have a 2014 leaf S (w/ quick charge) and I use Leaf spy pro for monitoring. Pro is def worth buying, btw. Lots of neat stuff in there.
I did an hours worth of L2 charging during lunch today.
Leaf Spy reported 3.8kWh at start of charge (11:32). After an hour (12:32) it reported 11.5...
Here is the data on my 2014 Leaf. Not looking promising for a battery replacement but I still have decent range. Any vets out there have any comments? The battery warranty for me ends June 2019. Currently have 10 bars.
Date - AHr - mileage
6/22/2017 49.5
7/2/2017 49.53

Based on more research, I believe my 2014 Leaf uses ND-11 type compressor oil. Nissan calls it AE10. Its a POE oil with no UV dye. The UV dye is bad since it changes the electrical insulation properties. Also, the supercool website has a tool to determine your car's oil...
Excellent info finman100!
I will speak to my dealer about higher torque setting for the driveaxles. We tried the lube route and that proved to not be a lasting solution.
Thanks and I will report back with any results I have.
I am trying to get some correct AC compressor oil for my leaf. It has either a leaking o-ring or a busted high pressure pipe. New O-rings either way and I would like to use the correct oil lubricant. The Nissan repair manual calls it AE10. I have talked to two dealers and they are not sure they...
The noise came back for me after a month or two. They had charged me about $90 labor and that's it. I guess they didn't bother to replace any parts in the process. I'll see about doing it myself. I asked for a full copy of the service bulletin and they did print it out for me. It specifies the...
As a follow up, I just spoke to a Nissan rep (Chris) by calling the 1-800-NOGASEV number. He said Technical Service Bulletins (TSB) are not necessarily covered under warranty. It seems this is the case with NTB 12-055 if your 3 year basic coverage is expired.
If I have the problem again, I'll...
I have a 2014 Leaf S with 42,000 miles that just had NTB 12-055 done to fix the noise issue. Dealer said not covered by the powertrain warranty. They charged me 79.43 for a 1/2 hour of labor. They said it fell under the "adjustments" warranty category and that expires after 12,000 miles.
I'll...
Cool to hear tziegler. I also have been researching hooking up an inverter to my Leaf. This one is top of my list:

Hi,
Would there be any other Jacksonville, FL Leaf owners on here?
It would be fun to meet up now that I have had mine for better part of this year. Also, would love to compare noises to make sure what I am hearing is normal, haha.
2014 Leaf S, purchased used in March 2017.
