10-emissions recall (no impact from it)
11-no problems other than the front brakes clicking (fixed for some time now)
12-EGR valve and 12 volt battery
13-EGR valve fixed it for around 500miles, then it came back but not as bad. Odd as it may seem the 12 volt battery has had the most impact; it has also helped increase the state of charge on the HV pack.
14-Self done
15-Dealership provided helpful advice (Honda Cars of Columbia)
16-Jason McCarthy
17-no home e-mail address just got filled with too much junk
18-52.1 and should now start climbing again
19-everywhere from 70 to 80, but mostly around 75
20-40% city / 60% highway
21-I first adjusted the valves around 50K and have touched them up since

Hope all this helps, I will let ya'll know if this miracle 12 volt battery replacement lasts.
