Wow, I just looked at Michigan. You're not joking when you say "the state". With the Ariya going to CCS and Tesla having so much growth, it's going to be hilariously ironic if we end up having the most exclusive DC charging network.

We are certainly on death watch but I do see a glimmer of light when looking at plugshare along the US East coast and down I-75 into Florida. There are a TON of Chargepoint CPE-250's with dual chademo ports (2 per site!) under construction now that show as "Coming Soon". Chargepoint is about...

The best case scenario is that it's a broken half shaft, spline shaft or CV joint etc.. just something downstream of the diff. That can be determined from outside the car by any mechanic. Please keep us updated on this one!

To the OP, thank you again for this awesome tutorial. Having just completed it I will add one more tip: When you go to reinstall the large panel, push the round plastic clips in the large panel to the top/end of their retainers. They slide out of position when pulling off and will not align...

Yes, my 2018 SL is the exact same way. There is very little treble from the rear speakers when shifted fully to the rear, the volume is maybe 25% of what the front ones are. It does seem like an issue but I have nothing to compare it to. Have you figured anything else out?

Test drove a 2018 CPO SV with 2600 miles on it over the weekend. It was a 2 year old brand new car basically and it VERY clearly had the problem at every start/stop or application of regen. The sales guy of course said it was the brake pads and that every car from every brand does it. I will...

Yes please keep it up! The 30kwh packs will be around for some number of years still before they are out of defect/capacity coverage. I think it's still a great option for those that can't afford anything else and this data provides some expectations.

If you are going to run an inverter directly off the battery here's a few things I have seen mentioned in various places: 1. Connect the negative terminal to frame ground. The negative battery terminal has a shunt for something.. (anyone know?) 2. Don't pull more than 1.2 kW or so continuous...

Yep, adds up to me. Traditional hydraulic brakes also get more difficult to modulate by human foot as the rotors get out of spec. EV, ICE, Amtrak passenger car... rotors go bad.

Great to know its a 14-50. Can someone please measure the length of the cable? I assume 25ft but I can't seem to find it listed anywhere in the specs.

Just for fun. How do you feel about having a virtual set of gears to shift/paddle your way through in an EV? Here's my thoughts: The virtual transmission would use a combination of Motor RPM, Power Output and Regen Levels to simulate gears and (this is where it might go off the rails) the...

If it seems tied to speed / axle RPM and it's not a tire or wheel, I would suspect a bad CV joint but that will not be easy to prove/disprove. Edit: You can check the rubber boot to see if it's torn... but I have had a brand new CV installed that caused vibration without any noise/clicks..etc.

Has anyone taken a 30kWh to turtle after the software update and checked SOH following a L2/L3 recharge? I'm not necessarily recommending anyone do this to their very expensive battery but it would be interesting.

The most perplexing thing about all this is that it really seems like Nissan had the 2015/2016 24kWh chemistry nailed down and the move to NMC should have further stabilized things if you are to believe the print. Just go onto a used car search site and look at 15's for sale nationwide even in...

Someone bought it yesterday. They got a heck of a deal.

I actually think the GOM is extremely accurate (ducking under the table now). If I see X range remaining and continue to drive at or below that speed until the car dies on the side of the road, it will have been almost spot on. I think the perception of it being unreliable is mainly due to that...

It certainly sounds like a 2nd opinion is in order. Even if the proprietary SD card / card reader is defective I hope that an ebay unit along with a dealer programming charge could do the trick. Everyone has been saying for a few years now that we are approaching EOL for all the electronic crap...

100% common problem.. hub nut needs tightened to torque spec. This is probably a good thread to ask around to see if this has turned into a recurring issue after multiple dealer visits by anyone?

^^ Ha Yeah ^^

A couple youtube'rs that have had warranty replacements since mid 2018 are showing the same 100+ GOM readings. It stands to reason at some point they might not bother producing the 24kwh packs anymore so you get a free upgrade.. maybe already the case. How's this for a question... what's the...
