Thanks for the offer! I'm assuming the VX is geared even lower than an HX? And the main cause of the better VX FE is due to weight and gearing? 2094 lbs for the VX versus 2339 lbs for my HX.

I do see a CEL light every few hundred miles. P0420. Which, in my experience, is either a cat or upstream o2. Do you happen to have either or both of the above laying around that'd work with my HX if I so desire to replace them?
