    Severe performance hit when replacing 1/4 OEM tires

    What do you make of this post about never rotating and all tires wearing evenly? :unsure:

    Severe performance hit when replacing 1/4 OEM tires

    Oh noooo. Well that sucks! So there's something to lower rolling resistance LOL. Then I doubt that moving them to back will change anything. Edit: Sent while above was posted. I trust @knightmb over my guess so... But check the max PSI of the new tires. My cold weather 39 had my tires at 44...

    Severe performance hit when replacing 1/4 OEM tires

    Is this new tire on the front? If so, perhaps rotate it with the same side rear. I've seen one tire larger than another throw off the traction control. Just a thought...

    Turn Off Sounds

    Unplugging it will throw a DTC (error code) and leave you with a yellow warning light on the dash display.

    Turn Off Sounds

    But VSP (sounds) cannot be turned off in LeafSpy on later MY Leafs. Nissan has prevented this, most likely after they realized someone other than themselves could do it.

    Tire maintenance and Other

    That's truly remarkable. You wrote elsewhere you changed your tires - but not yourself right?

    Securing front axle nut.

    Completely different forces going on here so this makes no sense. Lug bolts never move. The axle has significant forces being applied in both directions constantly. Why with paying customers do you do it right (and is it per the SM you like to bring up going by)? But you and you family are...

    EV Duty Burnt Contacts

    I press the release on the handle and wait for the contactors to click open. Oddly if you wait any longer the car starts to beep at you.

    55% battery drain in 10 miles, 2022 Leaf?

    Frankly I wouldn't trust anything that they say!

    Cannot push front axle in for clicking noise repair

    I didn't need to move the wheels. Holding the axle firmly in while greasing, I could see from the bottom and top where I was greasing without getting grease on anything else.

    Securing front axle nut.

    Since it's standard practice by many car manufactures to stake to absolutely guarantee that it's not going to move, why would you think anything else is better? Are you trying to save a $5 nut for next time?

    Reducing maintenance costs - avoid gouging

    As mentioned elsewhere on MNL, that doesn't test what's in the calipers which is the the lowest point in the system that gathers the heavier water. Brake fluid absorbs about 1% moisture per year, and 3% and less moisture is considered safe. Above 3% is not. This is why the recommendations above...

    Cannot push front axle in for clicking noise repair

    I ended up drilling out the stake (parallel to the key) once it was mostly lifted because I was afraid to damage the threads. They do stake the mother hard. It was also brutal to get the nut to initially turn. One took a wrench to take off. I got better and #2 was just over hand tight coming...

    100 kW Charging

    I have yet to see anything published that shows significant damage is done to the latest Nissan battery chemistry using DCFC. If the battery is getting too warm, then the charge rate may significantly drop off. I have never had 9 temperature bars. 10 is the last white bar and 11 and 12 are red...

    REALLY!!! $200 gas tax.

    I'm simply curious and not judging anything you say, but what could be sold from you mileage and location that is harmful to you (and even gainful to them)? If you carry a cellphone AFAIK that's available to your service provider already.

    Acenta 2018 possible purchase - Leaf Spy reading?

    Is it right for you based on your daily needs? That is in effect a 35kWh vehicle. Purely estimating 3.25 to 4.5 mi/kWh (winter to summer) driving, is 123 to 158 miles of range adequate for your needs? If your winters are like summer, ignore the 123. The SOH for the age and mileage of the car...

    Comparison: Why I Chose a Nissan Leaf Plus over a Tesla Model 3

    There are many EVgo CHAdeMO chargers in the North East (NJ, CT, MA).

    100 kW Charging

    Have you done this or speaking from what you think happens? I've charged several time at 70kW+ and did not see a temperature bar get added for at least 15 minutes. And that depends where it already is in the currently displayed bar - again, a temp readout would be great. Next time I'll attach...

    100 kW Charging

    Because the members countering don't have or see the issues that you are trying to put on everyone. And you seem to think that every Leaf owner should agree with you! I checked EVgo invoices. My last 5 DCFC's all averaged adding minimum 1kWh per minute on my trip. I got between 28 and 35kWh per...

    REALLY!!! $200 gas tax.

    Umm yeah since my fun car is a 1960 Thunderbird and needing lead added to the gas. That's why I don't drive it a lot. Just enough for people to see it or get ice cream. :ROFLMAO: It's hard to remember or imagine what the air must have been like in the 60' and 70's.
