Haven't been charged for a LEAF oil change, LOL. They do charge a little for replacing brake fluid every few years, and a yearly battery check after the first three years. That's about it other than tires. There have only been one or two software updates since we got our LEAF. Like most

Yes, Nissan is terrible about upgrades. I'm several versions behind because, in order to go to a dealer, I need to take half a day - a lot of driving and a lot of waiting. Just not worth the time unless absolutely necessary. Or, maybe, it's a good thing. Perhaps they have little control over

-charged for a LEAF oil change- I remember that there were about three instances of EVs being charged by dealerships for an oil change they did not and could not have received. But I only found one instance in the evdl nabble archives. All drivers (EV, pih or ice should check the dealership's

Hi folks I was wondering on my Leaf how does the rightmost gauge know the battery health or cycle life left? That's a really nice feature as I wish my Spark and other EVs had it (like spare tires :-) Mark in Roanoke Va Sent from my iPhone ___

-confused "balanced" and "stiffened"? I don't know as I did not read the Tesla driver's experience as there was no link- Instead of stiff, think the experience of a perky, or nicely performing pack which may equate to a fully charged and balanced pack. The [dated] mid 2015 Tesla experience was

Larry, GM advertises 90 miles range in 30 minutes. But like I said about my Mitsubishi the car regulated the current based in the battery management system. Most of them slow down as they approach full. But if the range of a bolt is 240 miles or whatever the advertise, then it would take 2

Still sounds like a hold over from lead batteries. I can't imagine the voltage of an unbalanced pack being more than 10 volts loss in voltage. This would not be noticeable. Does anyone have real data? Sent from my iPhone > On May 22, 2017, at 1:27 AM, brucedp5 via EV
