I haven't had much luck, I'm afraid, it seems even very apprehensive swiping on Android Auto is causing problems. I think the safest thing will be to track down a second 9" unit in mint condition and keep that boxed up for future sale with the car. In the meantime I'm going to try fitting a...

I'll see how I go with the screen cloth and alcohol free wipes I've ordered. It seems like there's an anti-glare coating that's extremely similar to the last gen Plasma TV I have, so I'll check out the cleaning instructions there. Some of the 'fixes' on the YouTube videos I've seen just seem to...

Hi All, Any tips for dealing with some minor scratches in the infotainment unit screen? I'm alarmed at how easy it seems to have scratched with just regular finger use. Thanks

So minor update: I have my car! Yay! It's pretty cool. The screen will need to be replaced at some point as it seems to be showing some signs of wear, but that's a mission in itself. 3kw charging sucks. After doing some googling, it looks like I can get a parted out E+ motor, inverter and PDM...

Well this post has taken on a new dimension as I am now the owner of a 2020 40kwh JDM G (Tekna?) model - but with 3kw charging. Issue: 6kw charging is extremely uncommon on non E+ models out of Japan. Models sold in NZ are fitted with Type 2 6kw options by default - same as the UK/US cars...

Following! Hope this goes somewhere. E: Hopefully this is something that can be resolved with flashing SD cards as that's about the extent of my skills. But being able to update the screen in a pre-2020 car would be a pretty big gamechanger.

I've taken a look at the Nissan announcements and you're right, the charger is part of the PDM which is separate to the inverter. It would also explain the physical differences between the Leafs with the 3.3kw charger and the 6.6kw charger in the Japanese market. So I guess the question...

Hi All, Bit of a weird one as will mostly apply to Japanese imported NZ/AUS ZE1 Leafs and not ZE1s sold in UK/US/NZ/AU markets natively. Most Japanese ZE1s run a 3.3kw charger as standard on their Type 1 plug, with very few cars outside of the E+ models having 6.6kw as standard. I'm on the...
