Hello fellow leaf brain trust. Yep I did it, took my 2011 leaf to EVRides LLC and had them replace the battery. Battery came out of a wrecked leaf with 500 miles on it. GOM shows 160 mile range but it drove 120 to LBW. 2011 GOM has always been “optimistic” to say the least.

I’m baffled and pissed off that Nissan has not provided a solution for early leaf connectivity going away. I’m still driving my 2011 Leaf and to keep it viable. It is essential that I can preheat the car to melt the ice & snow and maintain maximum battery charge. This time of year with heat /...
Hello Brain Trust of Leaf owners,
My 2011 leaf coughed up a slew of DTC's yesterday. I think most of these are by products of a bad Apple charge cord shorting down the USB connector. So I aired up the tires and cleared the codes BUT the P31C2 popped back up today. I'm thinking harness or...
Hello,
Saw a news bit about electric and hybrid cars not functioning in the Arizona heat. Some gal was commenting that her BMW wouldn't start because she left it in the sun. With 105 ~ 108 in the shade I suspect that car was a bit toasty.
Hello,
Been expecting this for a while, our 2011 has lost the 11th battery capacity bar today at 52,314 miles, 5 years 4 months 5 days.
I'll update with leaf spy data later when the wife lets me have the car again.
:D
Hello,
My 2011 Leaf started acting up with the wife driving. Master alarm lit up, "Visit dealer" in the multi info display, The park brake indicator is blinking as is the LED in the park brake switch. System is in Fail safe mode but she drove it back home OK.
SOoooooooo, I tore into it...
Hello,
Is it just me or is the carwings website down?
When I try to navigate to Leaf owners portal it throws me back to the home page.
My old bookmark does the same, it worked yesterday.
Thanks,
Don
Hello,
I have not been able to log into the Blink network since the 28th getting a "cannot open page / server dropped connection" error.
Is this just me or are others having the same issue?
Thanks

Hello,
Decided to take the Leaf to the Manzanita beach house this weekend. Had to double back after a few minutes following a call from my wife asking me to pick up the stuff she forgot. Drove to the Banks AV DCQC at Jim’s Thriftway to charge to 100%. Went into the store and bought a couple...
Hello Blinkers,
I went to my Blink dashboard today but got halted by a popup window requiring accepting an amendment to the Residential Participation Agreement, basically extending my participation until 12/31/2013. I have not accepted yet and will attempt to figure out what's up. Without...
Hello Leafers,
I had the NTB 11-041 carwings update done. Jury is still out, the tech had problems with codes being set after the update. Of course, they didn't tell me which codes. Carwings is still skipping emails and There is no data for the day of the upgrade which I assume is because it...
Hello Leafers,
One way I thought might help us determine battery degradation is tracking how much energy it requires to top up the battery from 10 to 12 bars. I went through all of my tracking documents and compiled this list for my Leaf. The timer is set to 80% (83% according to carwings) and...
Our First EVenture,
Decided to drive our leaf down to Eugene. My wife had a conference to attend at the River Valley Inn and I set up a meeting with U of O staff. Charged to 100% right before we departed. It’s 90 miles to the Browsville exit from my house, all freeways. I wasn’t willing to risk...
Hello Blinkers,
Has anyone actually charged their blink swag LED flashlight yet? I just assumed (<<<yeah, I know) after reading the lit that I could just plug it into the leaf cigarette lighter socket BUT............. the flashlight is a smaller diameter and would not charge. What am I missing here?
Hello Blinkers,
Has anyone noticed firmware version 1.8 got pushed out yesterday? I haven't used mine since but I sure hope it's a good one. The whole network was upgraded a week ago. I'm hopeful ;)
Hi Leafers,
Well, as I predicted months ago some idiot stopped on the freeway. I stopped safely behind the row of cars but the guy behind me rear ended our Leaf. :cry: Were are seemingly OK so far but the leaf isn't so good. It is drivable just has a bent up butt.
DAMN IT!!!!!
Hello,
My carwings is working normally except on July 27th I am no longer receiving charging complete emails. The car is set up properly and carwings is too. In fact, if I add text messages, they arrive as expected. Just the emails suddenly stopped.
Anyone else having this issue?
Hello,
Anybody having success logging onto carwings tonight? I cannot get a status update on my car, I guess I'll have to go look at it.
It says my password is incorrect but I know it's right.
Hello,
So I've been trying to figure out why I get multiple "charging stopped" notifications after the charge cycle has completed.
Conditions:
no blink timer
leaf start / stop times set 12 PM to 6 AM @ 80%.
Car remains plugged in.
When I check the leaf status via carwings it starts charging...
