I recently purchased a 08 civic hybrid and i drive highway about 70miles a day and the car has ~1000 miles on it.

Some questions, i want to make sure if it's normal or not
1) My battery gauge never fully charged, is this common for you. There is one bar missing. Not sure if calibration error
2) Does your car get somewhat jerky at low speed, it's like the engine is trying hard to get up to speed. It doesnt happen all the time
3) my IMA is somewhat jerky when it's cold, i feel a jerk everytime it starts. Just anoying.
4) how long should i warm up the car before going? our temps so far ~30F
5) when i brake hard, i hear "errrr" sound, like electronic sound
6) i get around 44mpg highway which is okay.

Thank you, i tried search but not much came up. So far, not too impress with it, probably should have gotten an accord or normal civic.
