I'm in SoCal and I'm glad there's this thread -- been reading through and, though I'm not a GID owner, I know from the average full readings of the guess-o-meter that I have diminished capacity...
Originally I thought it was due to my recent visit for the 15K mi service... maybe they tweaked some software or reset something... but I guess it's just been happening to everyone...
I've got 17K miles, avg 4.2mi/kwh (long time since reset), next month will be my 1 year anniversary of ownership, and I always charge up to 100%.
My typical cycles are like this:
overnight L2 charge to 100%
drive 30 mi to work (used to be 4 bars down, now 5)
garage L1 charge at work to 100%
drive 30 mi home (used to be 4 bars down, now 5)
rinse and repeat
If we go out to dinner (maybe 1-2 times a week), I'll use up an extra 2-3 bars.
I don't feel like I've lost enough yet to see a loss in a bar, but it is definitely noticeable, and I am guessing I'm well on my way.
Oh -- one more thing... I've noticed that the L2 charge times overnight have actually shortened... I always get the sms message sent to me that the charge has completed, and it is definitely taking 15-30min. less time (it always starts at midnight) than it has in the past.
