    Car wouldn't start, now does after charging. What happened?

    Has the PriorityStart! battery saver worked well, and are there any negative side effects? I'm about to order one. My 2013 Leaf 12v battery has died once every 6 months or so since new, typically on a Monday morning after not driving it on Sunday. I switched to a larger $250 Optima Yellow Top...

    largest 12v battery in 2013 leaf?

    It is labeled D35. The posts are on the right, so it fits perfectly. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6mfqosxdroz4yei/IMG_0419.jpeg?dl=0

    largest 12v battery in 2013 leaf?

    I went with a $250 Optima Yellow Top D35 AGM battery (what I believe is generically called a 35R) so the terminals are on the right side. The D35 fit great even though it has significantly more capacity than the stock 51R battery. I removed the 51R-sized plastic tray, used the 1-inch plastic...

    Core charge for drive battery replacement

    Update: I went back to the dealer today. They agreed there was a mistake, but only that the $1,000 core charge shouldn't have been there. They did not agree that the $1,000 core charge should have been a credit instead (They did keep the old battery). So no change to my bill, since they had...

    Core charge for drive battery replacement

    Per the article linked by cwerdna, "The suggested retail price of the Nissan LEAF battery pack is $5,499. This price includes and requires a return of your original battery pack (valued at $1,000) to the dealer in exchange for the new battery." So in 2014, the battery portion of the invoice...

    Core charge for drive battery replacement

    Nissan recently agreed to cover up to $6,500 towards a replacement battery for my March 2013 Leaf which had dropped to 63% (LeafSpy) / 8 bars capacity around 75k miles. Of course, I am just thrilled and so impressed with Nissan. My car is like new again. I did have to pay the local dealer...

    Tip: How to Recharge the 12-volt Battery

    After having 12v battery trouble every 6 months or so for 3 years, I finally bought an LELink OBDII bluetooth adapter. At minimum, there's a red LED in it that always receives power. I've left it plugged in 24x7 for a month with no trouble so far. I think I read in this forum somewhere that...

    Tip: How to Recharge the 12-volt Battery

    How did they know? I just bought one after 3 years of prior trouble. Can a service tech tell that I used it?

    Tip: How to Recharge the 12-volt Battery

    Here's an update to my original post which started this thread: Nissan Aftersales arranged for a service technician from Nissan (not from the dealer) to meet me at my local dealer. The Nissan service technician installed two software updates. The work order reads, "Reprogrammed PDM and EV...
