I'd also like any feedback about the 305 combo. Also, I'm wondering if Manual Transmission and CVT cars have MCMs and/or BCMs specific to those transmissions, i.e. are MT and CVT MCMs and BCMs interchangeable? I noticed that the 305 MCM I have has an "MT" designation, in the corner of the sticker, not sure if that "MT" has anything to do with 'manual transmission'...
On the 305 combo, previous poster might be right about that combo being a warranty replacement combo, as I'm working with a pack that was supposed to be a warranty replacement and it has the 305 combo...
Does anyone have an idea how the 305 set of BCM and MCM performs for mpg compared to the original year 2000 101/030 combination? It appears the 305 set was an early,matched warranty replacement set, circa 2001. Just wondering if they suffer the limited performance of the A01 and later modules that were designed to preserve battery life above mpg. Thanks for any feedback.
edit: looking through the computers spreadsheet, I see that CVT cars and Manual cars listed can have the same BCM part numbers; for example, there are CVTs and MTs listed with the 305, A01, and 030 BCMs. But I don't see any CVTs and MTs having the same MCM part numbers listed. But there's not a whole lot of CVTs in the list. Two CVTs have the 904 MCM; no MTs listed have that. One CVT has the 305 BCM and a 905 MCM...
edit: looking at parts listed at Majestic Honda, if I select 2002 CVT, the MCM listed is 905; if I select 2002 manual transmission, the MCM listed is 060. The BCMs listed are the same, A01. So, two things: 1) it looks like the latest/last BCM is likely the A01, and 2) it looks like the last/latest MCM offering is either the 905 for CVTs or the 060 for MTs; it looks like the CVTs and MTs have different MCMs, that they might not be interchangeable... Hopefully someone with firsthand experience can confirm or deny...
edit: OK, I guess it's a little more complicated than that. Here's all the MCMs and BCMs, for all years and transmissions, listed at Majestic:

I ran through the list at Honda Parts Now, and most of it is the same - except a little additional info for the 2000 and 2001 years:
2000 MT 1K000-PHM-050 Control Unit, Motor Electronic
1K100-PHM-000 Control Unit, Battery Electronic, Replaced by: 1K100-PHM-030
1K100-PHM-010 Control Unit, Battery Electronic (REFER TO PIB: 04-02eight), Replaced by: 1K100-PHM-030
[No CVTs listed in 2000]
2001 MT 1K000-PHM-050 Control Unit, Motor Electronic
1K100-PHM-030 Control Unit, Battery Electronic (REFER TO PIB: 04-02eight) (NA USE ALT: 1K100-PHM-A01), Discontinued [i.e. the 030 was discontinued]
2001 CVT 1K000-PHM-904 Control Unit, Motor Electronic (NOT AVAILABLE), Discontinued
1K100-PHM-030 Control Unit, Battery Electronic (REFER TO PIB: 04-02eight) (NA USE ALT: 1K100-PHM-A01), Discontinued
edit: Thought I'd add this info from the knowledge base
http://www.insightcentral.net/KB/recall-bcm.html - an excerpt from a recall letter sent out to 2000 and 2001 owners, in November 2001:
"A software problem exists in this control system which may allow the IMA battery to provide excessive assist under cold ambient temperature conditions (near -10C). This will result in one or both of the following two symptoms and may cause the IMA battery's condition to deteriorate over time:
1) The IMA system will not provide continuous assist even though the battery indicates that it is fully charged.
2) The vehicle will not automatically restart using the electric motor after Auto-stop."
Given the date of the letter, this 'problem' might be found in the 000, 010, and/or 030 BCMs - the ones listed as discontinued above... On the other hand, it looks like the 000 and 010 BCMs were first replaced by the 030 - and then the A01 replaced the 030... Also, looks like this might apply to the 050 and 904 MCMs as well...
