Hi ElanC,

thanks for the encouragement. But, seeing as some thought that most of it was pure speculation at best and at worst bad advice, I didn't see myself continuing to update the thread. I did put a lot of effort in summarizing all of what is currently know on the 2006 civic hybrid.

I'm all for sharing what is currently known about the car. I just got one and I am myself leaning new stuff every day.

However, being told by a senior member and a hypermiler that my post was basically useless, I didn't see why I should continue updating it.

Sorry, I don't want to sound negative, but, I tried to summarize in one thread ALL of what I READ in the boards. Most of the information was taken from NASAngineer's threads which show a lot of study in them.

Maybe someone else would like to continue the thread.

Thank you,
Stephane.
