    Seems a good outcome;good to see!

    BTW Did the work bring improved fuel economy? My car was 11 months old before first sale, and is a little heavy on petrol, around town, at about 13l/100. Out of town things change. A recent 600k trip, mainly on freeways, returned 7.3l/100k. The car has done 12,000k's.

    BTW2 anybody know why Honda puts the fuel figure-sticker, in front of the driver, whereas other makers usually bung it on the other side.
