I had to replace passenger side water pump. I ordered a used (may be from a salvaged) from 2018 Leaf. It was not same one. The Inlet was oin the same direction. Outlet was downward facing. I had to re-route the hose - bring it down and make the hose facing up, so that I could connect it to the...

Wow $6K for a 2013 Leaf and a free replacement pack is really great deal. My May 2011 lost its 9th bar at ~90K in Sept 2017. Now at 106000 miles, GOM shows 110 miles when charged 100%. Hppe this 2017 pack works better than 2011 pack. There are already know degradation of 30kWHr packs. :shock:

Technically yes, but water doesn't seep into the liners is what my point was..

Looks like Dublin Nissan are crooks. They quoted me $2700 (50-50 split), but today when I went to pick up my car, they said its 3100. When I talked to the Service Manager (Scott), he was rude and wouldn't give me breakdown on parts and labor. He mentioned there was adapter that they needed to...

Agree on the potential moisture (not water though), which leads to corroding the liners.. Changing brake fluid every 3 years is a good practice..

It still has 60% left

I looked at it and its clean. May be some day. I don't experience any degradation, so left it as is.

My 2011 Leaf SL has 90K and gets may be 50miles on a full charge to 20%. It has not seen the Dealer except for first 2 free battery checks and getting the service bulletin updated. The only time I spent money for maintenance on my Leaf is for set of tires and wheel alignment.. The efficiency...

Today I went to the dealer and my papers were ready. There was a contract that I needed to sign, which I did. It only had some T&C There was a Dealer Service quote that I signed There was Credit Card Payment sheet that I needed to fill. The cashier took a copy of my DL, wrote down CC info...

I didn't even negotiate anything with the dealer. I opened a support case with Nissan and after 2 weeks, they came back with 50-50 offer.

Thank you! I'll negotiate and will keep you all posted..

I'll know the actual quote tomorrow, when I go to the dealer. Nissan Rep told me it could be ~3.2k + Tax. I'm assuming the packs are 2017 packs, correct?

Some of you might have seen my post on SFBayLeafs I've a 2011 Leaf with 91K (8bars) and got an offer of 50-50 to replace the battery pack. This will put me in the out of pocket of close to 4K.. When I asked if I can get 80-20, rep said it is take it or leave it offer.. I didn't go for Battery...

Got the alignment done with slightly Negative camber and Toe out) and the ride is much better. Its very hard ride with 42psi all across. Its less bouncy compared to the original. I feel my Leaf snugs better with this alignment. In my usual commute drive, the ride is much better.OEM Springs were...

Does it void the warranty? :)
