I have been tracking my 30KwH battery in my 2016 SV since it was new with Leaf Spy.
I lost the first bar at about 9500 miles
and my battery SOH declined from 99% to 76 % during 4 years
At 11K miles I went in for the Battery Terminal Corrsion Recal ( battery plate).
and the 10K service required for the warranty.
Without my permission they performed the software change..
I had previously refused to have this done..
Now I have all 12 bars again, and my SOH is reading 90%.
I have yet to drive enough to see if I actually have the capacity and range indicated
or if this is just a fake to fend off a warranty replacement.. that seemed to be galloping my way.
BTW... I studied the previous generation of leafs.. and all the info available on this forum
regarding charging, discharging, heat, and yada yada. I typically have a 30-40 mile use, recharge to 85-88 %
only 16 QCs Clipper Creek high power L2 EVSE. No high temp battery events.
if I have done anything wrong.. it might be too many L2 charges when I was only down to 50%...
never turtled, only 2 low bat warnings.. where we've gotten to maybe 12-13 %.
Typically 4.1 miles per KwH... and platinum ranking.
So, I dont know if I have been snookered and screwed... or not.
I will charge to100 % and compare the Ah reading with previous... see if they have fiddled with that too !
my cell variation is between 9 and 12 mv.. always has been.
I would like to hear other folks experience with this goofy re-set and the 2016 battery.
I am beginning to think I would have been better off to exercise the battery more.. discharging deeper,
more often. Clearly with only 11k use in 4 years... the car is under utilized.
