Thanks! The HS is Lexus's new hybrid. Yeah, its not that big a deal, except I don't get the cool 9999mpg reading because of it. I get mpg readings in the 800s and 900s instead. Too bad there's no fix for it. Is anyone else also experiencing this?

I thought I only had to calibrate the tank size after the first 2 fillups?

I already learned something new about the car thanks to my SG. When I shift into B (engine braking mode), it restarts my ICE and therefore drops my mpg. I never knew that. I guess I'll only use B when the ICE is running from now on.
