Should be filling within a few days, trip computer says 39.6, I believe so actualy mpg once I fill it up probably around 36.5. That vehicle mostly suburban driving lots of short trips. So, overall, pleased with mpg as slightly more than what sticker indicates. |

Hi Everyone, My "Service Engine Soon" light just came on with under 3000 miles. The car is running fine. I have no clue why it's on. If I knew a way to reset it I would try that and wait to see if it came on again. If so, I'd run it in to the dealer. I'm quite a ways away so it would be nice to be able to do a reset and see what happens. Anyone have a clue on how to do a reset on the "Service Engine Soon" light on a NAH ? TIA.

Replying to: langjie (Sep 19, 2008 12:09 pm) The 1st thing I did was to check my gas cap before I put up the post. Anyway I Googled "Service Engine Soon" light for NAH and found nothing. I did find a number of posts about disconneting the battery and reconnecting it for other cars. Well I decided to give it a try. My "Service Engine Soon" light is now off. It hasn't come back on today. I've used my car about 5 different times today. It's still off. Only thing that happened was the horn started beeping when I reconnected the battery and VDC light stayed on for a few miles. I think it just had a bad emissions burp. Anyway I disconnected the negative wire on the battery in the trunk on the right side inside that little door on the right about 1 foot in. Anyway this has worked for me and if it does come back on it's going into the dealer.

Replying to: chrisr007 (Feb 10, 2008 7:33 pm) 2. The car runs solely on battery up to 39-41 mph given that you crawl the car up to that speed with plenty of juice in the batter pack. The engine kicks in when you accelerate or when you are low on the battery pack. 3. The transition between gas and electric engine can be a bit rough once in a while, otherwise, it's pretty smooth. If you are not a die hard Nissan Fan, then go with the Camry hybrid, it's worth the extra $.

Replying to: zerr (Dec 12, 2008 12:26 pm) I don't think I'd go that far. I think the NAH is great, though you have random issues sometimes. I think you should try out both before making a decision. Sometimes I think it might have been better to get a prius for the fuel efficiency, but I never get those thoughts with the TCH. Just thinking of the horrible unsupportive seats make me cringe.
