Re: 06' Civic gets 90mpg???
I rolled through the 63 mile mark on my way home last night (second full day of ownership) and saw no reset. Car was built 12/05 and deleivered to me by dealer on 1/24 (arrived to dealer on 1/19). I will continue to monitor and report any observed discrepancies.

That's correct. 63 MPH is when the flux capacitor engages and initiates the time travel sequence.

I reset my Trip B everyday to maintain a daily log of consumptions. I passed 63 miles everyday... no resets...
The Flux Capacitor on my car engages at 69 mph
... to boldly go where...

My 06 HCH seems to have the mpg bug. It goes nuts around 63 miles on the meter. I called my dealer, and he didn't know anything about it, but he looked on the Honda website and told me that it said to remove the battery cables, connect them together for 1 minute then hook it back up (to reset the electronics?) I'll let him try it, and if that doesn't work, he said he would talk to Honda. My vin number is 7027

I report that this does NOT solve the 63miles reset problem.

Update:
I took my car to the dealer this morning, and when I picked it up he told me that the procedure was only for 2005 and older HCH Is. So he did not do anything to the car. He told me he would contact Honda, and keep my work order open.
