#3593 of 3601 '06 HAH Software Update and Tax Credit by citywolf
Aug 09, 2006 (6:49 pm)
The IRS announced on July 12th that the '06 HAH will now qualify for an increased tax credit ($1300) if the car has the "Calibration Control Update" to improve gas mileage. I went to my dealer for the udate and was told that my '06 HAH will be recalled for the update, but has not been recalled yet. I will get the update in the next 1-2 weeks. Has anyone had the update yet, and if so, how much better is your gas mileage?- citywolf (Aug 19, 2006 9:03 pm)

I got my software update Friday morning (8/18/06), and when I got home, ironically, my recall letter was waiting for me in my mailbox. Since Friday, I have driven about 200 miles, and have noticed maybe 2 MPG improvement in mileage. Not a whole lot. What I have noticed, is that my car now coasts more -- before the update, practically every time I let off the gas, the battery would charge. Now, it is often simply coasting when I let off the gas instead of charging the battery. I have not noticed any decrease in battery power. Other than that, I have not noticed any change in the functioning of the car. Has anyone else noticed any changes?
