Gas Cap

According to my dealer there is a known issue witht he seal on the gas cap on the '06 coupe. Once in a while you will get a warning "Check Fuel Cap" that will not go away. You have to take it to the dealer so that they can reset it for you.

The issue has been reported to Honda, but there is currently no resolution.

Just an FYI.

I have had it happen twice. Other than that, I love mine! 2,000 miles as of yesterday.

Re: Gas Cap

The exact same thing is happening to my '06 sedan, but the dealer claims that there is no way to reset this, and that it will just take time of the evap system to run its cycle. Well, I've driven like 5,000 miles since it started flashing, and still nothing .....Grr

Smile Re: Gas Cap

I've seen this issue before on my 2006 EX Civic at 35,000 miles. It went away after attempts to retighten the cap. Now at 40,000 miles, when the temperature outside is 90degC, the issue came back. I rang one of the local Honda dealerships and was advised to replace the fuel cap. I bought a replacement from Autozone made by CST, Inc. for $9.06 (incl tax) and will observe any improvements. Keep you posted.
