Re: My dear friend 1.6dig-t no more

The Nissan info posted above by DaveBerlin appears to be old info, as the QQ doesn't utilise the front camera for the autonomous breaking, it uses a radar system located behind the front bumper. Sorry, gvmdaddy - you are wrong. The info posted by Dave is correct and current. The referenced "fr...

yep, parked up. It did cross my mind that it was deliberate for the reasons you suggest, but if that was the case, why allow keypad input to place a call and then remove the keypad during the call.

If that's the way it's designed, fine. Just wondered if I was missing something?

If that is true then Nissan Connect is one dangerous piece of kit!

Glad I only use it for listening to my Doris Day collection. ;)

Re: Electric car drivers suffering "Charge Rage"

Really enjoyed test driving the leaf last year. Would have gone for it but I was vetoed by the rest of the family.

They suffered from - "range anxiety" - "charge rage" - "engine silence phobia" and "refuelling boredom".

I didn't stand a chance.

Nissan Connect modifications in the area of video streaming could have serious implications to say the very least. Who would sign off the mod for safety/insurance purposes?

True, but such is the nature of forums. For the record my J11 has been superb.

Comments, good or bad should always give details of the spec/engine under discussion.

When you get your money back then it is the best of results open to you. As I have said before. I have the same model and mine is a a superb car. I can't fault it any way.

All the best for 2017 jay. Best wishes from Lancashire.

Re: Electric car drivers suffering "Charge Rage"

Yes, I think the article drifted off the point. I think Ecotrictity charge circa. £5 per 20 minutes, so to leave your car connected for an hour or more (for most EV's) would be very expensive. I think the "charge-rage" term actually refers to ICE drivers parking in EV bays.
