After driving it some more days it really is doing good. Seems like a new pack to me. I am pretty happy with it. It has more than double the range that my previous ‘14 which had 77% SoH. And I bought the ‘14 in 2019 for about $9k I think, sold it in 21 for &14k…. So in the end I’m pretty happy.

In my research I did see that it appears the later 2017's had 40 kWh packs... but this one may very well be a recent replacement. Does anyone know if the QC and L1/L2 charge count gets reset with a new pack? Anyway I drove it away from the dealer today with 79% charge and drove 66 miles in the...

They didn't say it had a new pack or anything. It does look like later 2017 models got the 40 kWh though. I don't know, I'm still skeptical.... We shall see after some driving. I bought an Emporia EVSE and am getting a 50A 230V outlet installed this weekend.

So do you have DRL as well? I can understand taillights and DRL, but taillights but no front lights? That doesn't make sense to me. I would like to have my taillights on when the car is "running" as well. I already have added DRL to my Leaf by installing two relays and tapping into one of the...

Honestly I think I’d sell it and get something with water cooled battery. But off you insist on keeping it I’d stick with the higher speeds avoiding sitting over hot asphalt, try to park in spots that are shaded already or were just occupied by another car so the ground may be a little bit...

So I just bought a 17’ SL it’s about 43K miles that has a claimed 98.78% SoH. This can’t be right considering its age. I would expect somewhere in the 80s. it was owned in Oregon and not driven a ton. I’m just concerned the dealer bought it from may have reset the BMS which could result in this...

Most maintenance isn’t going to show up on carfax unless it was done at a manufacturer dealer AND they chose to document it for the carfax system. As for AC refrigerant most people don’t do this until they have problems. I’ve not heard of this being critical to the Leaf but even if it is go...

I live in Meridian and bought a ‘14 in ‘19 then sold it just over a year ago because I needed more range and didn’t have the money to just buy a second car. Wish I had been able to keep it but it was a good experience. Mine had 84% SOH when I got it and then 77 when I sold it two years later. I...

Just thought I'd follow up after having the car almost 2.5 years now, 52K miles on it. Not a single problem with it, drive it daily. Our routine hasn't changed much, so its still been a great runner. Electricity is still $0.08 or $0.12 per kW/h so its only costing me about $15-20 a month to run...

Good luck with the newer Leaf hopefully it serves you better.

Airbag module, possibly the clockspring, module reset or replacement, and the crash sensor behind the front bumper. This would need to be done properly or the replacement airbag won’t deploy in an accident and you’ll have airbag light on the dash. I’m not exactly sure the procedure but I had a...

On the nav screen. There is setting I think labeled comfort and convenience or something and iKey was off after changing settings via LeafSpy.

Well congrats on the Tesla... with thermal management they should in theory last much longer an for the most part I think that is being proven. I'm curious though, as I find your statement "I didn't take it to Nissan to have it looked over" a bit odd. What did you mean by this? Has the vehicle...

Well if you only need it for two years and 10 miles round trip why not try and find an older, much cheaper Leaf? Even a 6 bar 2011 will work out just fine for you and would be half the cost. I know you said there are only 2015s and newer but are you sure? These things lose value so quickly...

My understanding is that the SV models were the only ones that came with LED low beam headlamps as opposed to the halogens on all other models. The LED lights have a somewhat bluish appearance. The LED headlamps do have what looks just like a HID ballast, but it is actually an LED driver. It is...

I found the problem, apparently any time one of these settings is changed via Leaf Spy the i-key stuff in the computer gets turned off. I turned it back on and now all is working again, with my desired settings intact. Mildly annoying quirk but there you go. Thanks for helping out everyone.

No the issue started right after changing settings. One of my FOBs has a brand new battery as well and I'm still having the issue. Wonder if removing the 12V battery for a while will rest it all to defaults...

Yeah generally I don't leave it plugged in anyhow, I try not to plug it in until I actually want to charge it. I did try the charging timer but i've decided I don't like having to unplug it if I need to do a quick trip - it wasn't charging yet anyway. I'll be keeping an eye on the 12V battery...

I've had my '14 SV for a couple weeks now and I bought Leaf Spy Pro for iPhone, I modified a bunch of settings in the service menu... they all worked, except now my outside door handle lock/unlock button doesn't work anymore. I tried changing other settings, and even tried setting it back to...

Ahh yes. I did read that on this site during my research. However during my troubleshooting of my 12 V battery when it died I had a multimeter on it, trying to see if it was getting charged when the car was “on”, which it was. I also turned to car of e then plugged in to charge the car, and a...
