    Parasitic draw story

    My LeLink dates from late 2019, and I found within just a couple of months that if it was left plugged in and the car wasn't used for a few days, it would run the 12 volt battery down to the point the car could not be started. Apparently the newer versions shut off automatically when the...

    The 62kWh Battery Topic

    LeafSpy shows Hx at 72.3%. Is there anything that can be done to bring that number up? Should I be concerned?

    Power consumption when stopped in Drive

    Thank you for finding that old post. Very informative. I get the impression that some folks think that e-pedal is somehow working when they are cruising, and that it is affecting the efficiency. My understanding is that e-pedal only operates when you take your foot off the accellerator and...

    Power consumption when stopped in Drive

    If creep mode is not disabled, then why does the car remain stationary when stopped when e-pedal is engaged? It will not move until the go-pedal is pressed - doesn't that qualify as eliminating the car's ability to "creep" forward? Personally, I like not having to have my foot on the brake...

    Biggest aftermarket battery upgrade for 2011-2017

    Sorry - way too technical for me. The video appears to be about testing and replacing a "module" which is apparently some part of the overall battery. All well and good, but I heard or saw nothing about an isolation problem, either in a description of what it is or what to do to fix it. I can...

    Biggest aftermarket battery upgrade for 2011-2017

    I have had my Leaf for just over 5 years, and have yet to see any sign of an overheating problem. Our summers here have at least 2 months of temperatures over 100 degrees, but it doesn't seem to affect the Leaf in the slightest. I'm not sure what you mean by isolation problems - what would...

    Power consumption when stopped in Drive

    And why would you want to coast? You have no control that way, other than with your brake pedal. How are you determining that e-pedal is affecting your range in a negative manner? I can find nothing that would give me that impression, either on the Leaf itself or on LeafSpy. Where did you...

    Power consumption when stopped in Drive

    No - that's exactly what it was designed to do. E-pedal gives you an anti-creep function that keeps the car from moving until the accellerator is pressed. I drive in B range with e-pedal always on, and I love the control it gives me. I rarely need to use the brake pedal, even in a hilly area...

    2026 Nissan Leaf

    Same here. Now that we are well up into the "elder" category, my wife, in particular, prefers driving something the size of the Leaf to anything larger. We looked at an Ariya, but she just wasn't comfortable with how big it felt. I am disappointed with the look of the new Leaf. They...

    Key Fob battery

    I switched from 2025's to 2032's in the 2 fobs for my 2019 SV+. Not a problem.

    Nissan EV carefree+ experiences?

    What regular service visits? Unless you are putting an excessive amount of miles on the car each year, you shouldn't need much of anything in 3 years. My car is 5 years old and I haven't spent a dime on it in that time. Most dependable car I have ever owned (and at my age, I have owned many!).

    This article concludes worrying about 80% isn't necessary.

    Unless you are putting many thousands of miles on the car each year (in which case you probably shouldn't be driving a Leaf in the first place), I just don't see this as being a real problem. I charge mine until the Chargepoint app tells me it is no longer charging at the full 6.4 amps, and...

    Fermata FE-20 approved by Nissan

    All the postings above are very interesting, even though, not being an engineer, much of it is over my head. A lot of what is stated seems to indicate this product is for commercial use, as it requires larger capacity than is usual in most homes. From what the press release indicated, one...

    Help Me Read My LeafSpy

    Sorry - I thought this topic was about reading a LeafSpy. Seems like it has gone off topic to battery degradation. Anyone familiar with LeafSpy to the extent you can help with the questions I have posted previously? Thanks!

    Help Me Read My LeafSpy

    I read on a post sometime back that "Hv Battery control software version" should be 4nr4c. Supposedly this adds 30 miles to the vehicle range. Is this info part of LeafSpy Pro? If so, where do I find it? And can anyone tell me why LeafSpy shows my SOH at 0.00%? What is needed to get this to...

    Sony Rear View Camera Recall - NHTSA ID: To Be Determined

    I just received the recall notice, but since my camera works just fine, I haven't contacted the dealer yet. The notice states that if the camera is working properly, the dealer will apply protective tape and reroute the harness to prevent future movement. I am kind of going with the "if it...

    Experience with Continental Purecontact LS tires.

    Curious as to why you selected the 235/45 size when up-sizing. To maintain the same diameter as the 215/50/17 stock tires, you would normally go to 215/45/18. By increasing the diameter, did you encounter any rubbing or other problems? What did the change do to your speedometer and odometer...

    Wheels, tires and range -- what works best?

    Thank you for your input, but I respectfully disagree. The GOM told me I had recovered 60 miles of range, getting me back to 185 miles available. My state of charge (SOC) also increased back up to 68%, from the 45% it had dropped to when the GOM had dropped to 125. If the GOM were merely...

    Wheels, tires and range -- what works best?

    The SOH on my Leafspy reads out as 0.00%. Everything else seems to read out just fine. Battery capacity shows as 60+ kWh. Not sure what is going on. At any rate, I am still not clear how Doug is getting GOM estimates of more than 300 miles on a car the factory says is rated for no more than...

    Use e-pedal to reduce physical brake wear?

    This has been covered quite well in other feeds (see Similar Threads, below) but is apparently a subject of considerable interest. Since I don't care for a car that "coasts", I like the slight deceleration I get in B range. In the 5 years I have had my Leaf, it has always been in B and Eco...
