I cannot get the VSP sound disable to work on my 2017 SV It is simply stuck at the screen that says turni leaf on. I tried all three states ignition on, , Acc mode, and in drive mode and then park and cannot get that message to go away. All other functions seem to work on the other...

Um, gullibility? Did you know that word isn't in the dictionary? Firstly I wouldn't use the term gullible, which means 'easily deceived or tricked'. They didn't design a system to trick users. They designed a controller to report battery status which I agree is hard to do. I used to...

Back with some more info on my 2017 SV that had a rapidly declining SOH. In the first 400 miles it went from 100% down to 92% along with an associated decline in Ah rating and estimated range. This was with only L1 charging (120V) using the supplied Nissan slow charger. I'm doing textbook...

Done. Thank you. Robert

Maybe it's more to do with their algorithm than the true state of the battery, not sure. Over the last week I've put another 100 miles on my new 2017 SV , the car now has 399 miles on it and the SOH has gone down another notch to 93%. Hx is now 87%. We had a heat spell, and now it's cold...

Inaccurate as the battery status readings may be, there are two real-world implications of the imperfect Nissan software: 1. Declining resale value of the car as capacity bars go away. 2. If the car 'thinks' its battery is in poor shape or low charge then it will limit your driving range...

I think he might mean the Nissan algorithm that determines the SOH might favor cells that are very close in voltage, which happens during the balancing process. Balancing happens most significantly when the pack is topping off the charge when near full. Although the SOH reading might not be a...

From my experience with Li-Ion they don't tend to self-recover a lot. A little here and there but you can't regain capacity similar to when you cycle an old Ni-Cad or Ni-MH. In fact, one of the worst things you can do to Li-Ion is deep discharge then charge to full. You'll get the longest...

I believe you're correct. When these cars sit on the storage lot they probably plug them into charge them up to 100% because they removed the 80% option. And there they sit week after week, month after month at 100%. Precisely what will prematurely wear out a battery and what Nissan tells...

Another data point for a brand new car. Two weeks ago I leased a 2017 SV here in San Diego, CA. Mfr date 2/2017, bought on 5/14/2017. So probably sat for 3 months at 100% charge I fear because Nissan removed the 80% charge option. Here are some stats: Upon delivery it had 40 miles on the...
