I have tried the three clicks thing with the gas cap, that did not change anything.

I don't have my manual in front of me but all of the Honda's I have ever owned including my HCH will flash the maint required light if its time for an oil change, probably every 7500 miles or so. Eventually it will stay on until you reset it. The manual tells you how. Hold in the trip odo button while you turn the ignition key to on (but dont start the vehicle) hold the odo button down for a few seconds until the maint req light turns off. The check eng light is the most critical light to pay attention to. Hope this helps. The older hondas had a maint required colored disk that changed from green to yellow to red every 7500 miles.
