I usually sell my cars "private party" but I think the Leaf is going to be a "tough sell". Although my Leaf has only 32k miles and has been "pampered" (i.e. - always garaged, hand washed, no kids, pets, eating, drinking or smoking) I don't think it will have much effect on the selling price. I...

I have read with interest a number of posts on this site regarding 12 volt batteries either getting weak or dying. Perhaps I'm just lucky or got an "exceptionally good" 12 volt battery, but I've never had any issues with mine and it will be 7 years old in May. I don't do anything special - no...

I have a 2011 Leaf SL delivered May 24, 2011. It has 16,000 miles on it. It's had all software updates. All the capacity bars are still lit but I know the capacity is not what it was when new. I just had my 3 year battery check and got full capacity and 5 stars all around (means nothing, I...

I don't think I've seen this question anywhere on this site yet; Why does the Leaf start charging (or continue charging if already at 80%) when pre-conditioning (remote climate control activation)? Can't the "plug-in" power only the climate control without activating charging? I use the charge...

At my one year service/battery check, it was noted on the Leaf multi-check form that the 12 volt battery needs a recharge. The service advisor made no mention of it when I picked up the car and I didn't see this "issue" until I got home. Why would the 12 volt battery need a recharge if the car...

For the past couple of days, I have noticed that even though the climate control energy use display shows NO energy use (only the fan was in operation), the text above the display says "turn off climate control for +10 miles". This happens from a "cold start" as well as when mode is switched...

Twice now, when connected to my Leaf, my iPod 5g (160Gb) has "frozen" causing the display to show "NO USB DEVICE FOUND". I then have to repeatedly press MENU and SELECT on the iPod until it finally decides to reboot and go back to "normal". This happens after weeks of the iPod working just...

I've had my Leaf SL a couple of months now and am finding that I can not get more than 40-45 miles (per trip odometer) before reaching 2-3 bars on the SOC meter. My average miles per KWh shows about 4.5 in the car and Carwings shows me at level 5 - top level for driving efficiency. Why then...

I purchased the splash guards thinking I would install them myself. After reading the directions (available online only) I'm thinking it would be best to take it to the dealer. I think the wheels would need to be taken off in order to install them, but I could be wrong. Has anyone installed...
