"I wasn't expecting to like it as much." Yup. Right there with you 😂.

This is such good advice, I've had the car 2 weeks and I've been running my owm similar experiment! It's good to know

If you're wearing out the outsides of the tyres you have to much toe-in. Get the car tracked at a garage and you'll see a huge improvement.

I have a question. I'm going to soon be losing my work van that I use to get to and from work and I want something reliable £0 tax cheap to run and can do 8 miles a day for 42 weeks of the year. Literally just a set of wheels that keeps me dry and means I don't have to get the bus. I was thinking about a Fiat 500 Twin-air, but considering a Leaf. To be honest I wouldn't be seen dead in one but like I said it's just got to get me the 8 miles to and from work. But, from what I've seen people say you can tell the state of the battery by the 12 bars etc. My question finally is. Can it be battery "clocked?" Can car dealers put bars back on via that OBD2 port to make the car look fresher than it actually is? Would Leaf Spy know if something had been messed about with? You might have guessed, I don't trust car dealers.

I first test drove this, then a seat arona. The arona felt cheap, plasticky and rickety inside. MG felt like a bit of luxury and quality actually

I’m thinking about getting one of these cars just do the fact that we don’t pay for electricity so plugging it in 110 overnight and just doing local driving will save me a ton of money.

we have a 2020 leaf 40kw tekna. we also have 2 ice cars. the leaf is an incredible car to own. in 4 years it's cost us one wiper blade. no servicing needed. the mot is the service. cheaper than taking the bus. if you never drive more than 100 miles and have a home charger then just go buy one. i've been driving 45 years and over 4 million miles. takes a lot to impress me. the leaf is one fantastic car in everyway. so nice to drive aswell.

Is it normal for the light to be ON while driving at night? I could not turn off the light on the camera

I love my i3... I have had it for many years, and it now has 30k miles on it, and it is still working flawlessly.

I drive a works Leaf through work not for my own use very often and as they say they are like marmite, I do short journeys so I think a leaf would me ideal for me , I've been informed that when purchased from new some buyers bought the battery outright from nissan , some rented the battery , if I'm purchasing one how will I know if the battery has been bought or rented ? Thanks very much great review.

Interesting. We've got the newer 120 full electric that will do just over 200 miles on a charge. Brilliant car!

I have the same issue with the drivers window. Saw a video online mentioning the dry silicone but comments saying it didn't work for them and now they get streaks even after a long time of waiting. Can you provide more info? Thanks

My 2014 leaf is on 80k miles and still going strong. It paid for itself in fuel savings years ago and is all profits now

Basically as a *used* car, it's a 100-mile range EV, which is fine for most journeys in the UK. If you have a daily round-trip commute of more than 90 miles, look elsewhere because it might not do it in winter (or in wet conditions).

You can now pick up a 2018 LEAF for less than £10k. EVs are starting to become great value.

@EV Opinion Good product,may I know if it's ok for you to review our foam cannon S V3.0?Thanks in advance!☺

Hello and thank you for this. Currently I am looking to buy a 2012 Leaf and intend using your guidance. I don't quite understand where the GID's fit could you kindly help: 280 GID's when your/ a Leaf is new. Yours in this video has 17.1% GID's. Am I correct calculating 17.1% of 280 GIDS = 47.88 GID's is all that is left please? 🤔

I'm from Sri Lanka. With our economical crysis our fuel prices are so much expensive. So we bought a nissan leaf which is very cheap to maintain and drive. It's a really good car with lots of hate

Where are you mate? Hope you and your fam are ok? Missed your contents on KZbin.

Hi, can I use this leaf spy app & my OBDII with 4/5G not over Wi-Fi??

Great tutorial

Thank you. Very clear concise and informative. Cheers

Could it look a bit dodgy if you want to plug the dongle into a car that someone is selling? And second question, if someone had a dodgy app, would it be possible to upload dodgy stuff to the car using it? Thanks for the video, very useful :)

Only just watched this. Have to say you offered sound advice on focusing on the version you really need. In my ICE I do approx 60 miles per week so a move to EV is for me, a good option. I occasionally do more but, rarely. So, the 24kwh version is probably the best option for me. Made me think a bit so thanks.

That’s hodgetwins intro music tho

Hi Ryan, what happened to you m8? channel and reviews are really good and helped me when i decided to buy my leaf at the time, i hope your well and still with us🤞

Thank you. Just the right amount of info.

Interesting we have a 62kwh leaf and although I haven't been monitoring the battery temperature that much I've never seen it reach half way when I have, or even change perceptibly with driving (b mode, no e-pedal, ecomode on). Aside - recently started using e-pedal and love it. So in early October made my longest journey from Birmingham to Scotland. 100% charged night before departure. Used drive settings above. Temperature 18C till Scotland then it cooled down to about 12. Drove up M6 and M74 at 50-70 (traffic jam at Lancaster cost me 30minutes of crawling) with lots of hills at Shap and Southern Scotland. Charged over my lunch at 50Kw charger south of Preston to just over 80% (30 minutes ish). When I got to Abingdon I was at 24%. Could have made it home (just), but thought I might need the car the next day and wanted to try out the ultra-rapid charger (120Kw). Got my fastest charge ever. Went from 24 to 85% in just over 30 minutes (max rate 100Kw of course) but was still charging at 36Kw when I disconnected. This suggests to me this is not a problem in more recent Leafs. PS would have made me it home with 9% charge and the journey even if had paid for the electricity at my mum's was a quarter of what it would have cost me in my old civic with non motorway prices for petrol.

I’ve seen other videos with the Nissan system that were much quicker.

Does leaf spy work on Windows 11 notebook?

Is it still necessary to employ the use of a OBD 2 for state of health on a 2016 Nissan Leaf?

Did u stop making videos? Is everything alright with you guys? Did you upgrade the leaf? If not - hows the old one holding up?

Just bought a used leaf 11/2012 made in Japan with 11/12 bars. Check with leaf spy shows 81.4%SOH. 24,000km on the clock. 8 fast charge in total since 2013 that it was registered. I was amazed on how the car was looked after. Complete service history with Nissan Authourised workshop . Looking through repairs/service papers, only fluids were top up ,wipers replaced twice and break pads changed once. Car look almost brand new. I paid 90,000 Swedish kronor , approximately 7,000£ with no regrets for such a car. Despite all the talks about the first zeo leaf batteries, i think its all comes down to how the car was used and maintained and these applies to even ICE cars as well. If you take care of your car they will pass your expectations.kudos to Nissan for the leaf's . Haven't said that , i knew what i was buying into,i dont expect to reach 200km on a full charge on this car ,my daily commute to work is 66km round trip and this car will do this without any issues even in winnter months here in Sweden. I have an ICE car which we hope to use for family long trips but after just one month with the leaf , i am already thinking of getting rid of the Ice car or trading both for a bigger battery EV so we can stick to one family car. If you haven't tried an EV ,its would be very difficult to break the myth about battery degradation and all the bullshit out there about EV transition. Go out there and maybe rent one for a week or two to get your own perspective on EV's . Thanks to everyone on social media platforms that are sharing real life experience with EV's because the decision to buy the Leaf was inspired by you all ❤

Thank you for your contribution to help others with their purchasing decision. Your honest down to earth personality combined with knowledge is much appreciated. All the best Sir

Thanks for this. I'm very close to buying a Leaf, and just purchased LeafSpy & a wireless ODBII. Feel confident I'll know how to use it when going to the dealership now.

Your review seems 90% negative, based on a high spec £25k EV... rang of 165 im getting city wise, 140 motorway

So when I go onto my phone and connect to the OBD and it says "connect without internet" that is okay is it?

3:42 just earned yourself a sub 😂😂😂

I sell my kona 64 to buying the new leaf, its lot better

Hi have you given up your channel in 2023?

car is rated at 300-500km per charge not only 80 miles

Comfort and Ride ? .... often overlooked

Save you $35 but how much CO2 did you save the planet. No I'm not an Eco freak. But I do like to gamify my driving. I started driving at about 3.5 miles per KWA now I'm up to 6. The stated range of my EV is 247 miles. I exceed 300 miles regularly .

Just got a leaf tekna...September 2023. Bit confused which OBD connector to buy on Amazon. And then what app to use. Any help please

Address please

who pays these fools cost to buy etc etc etc i could go on but what is the point corporate add

Hello there . Am interested in a Renault Zoe year 2017 with the 22kw battery . The car has already 70,000 with health battery 87% . Is it worth to buy an EV car over 6years old with a degradation of 13% or should I forget about it . I mean would it be more troublesome than cost savings in the long terms ? Advice most welcome

The Range EXtender (REX) actually is a Chinese engine made by Kymco. No wonder that didn’t make the headlines in the i3 marketing campaign.

All that money for a Tesla and it doesn't even work. I'm speechless.
