Sorry for confusion(on my end it seems) if you filled it up and it hasnt changed the range there is something wrong.. Once i see the setting you changed.. If it is correct im gonna assume there is a bad sensor somewere thats not recognizing rhe gas fill and/or level..So what you're saying is this fuel range meter works way different than the one in the 15 Civic. That one would increase or decrease its max range based on your current driving habits. So if say it said range 300 miles and i started driving and getting better mpg it would go up as it was taking that into mind. Where as this one totally ignores that, will stay what it is on previously and either go down or sometimes not change. As with now after the fill up this morning, it stayed on what it had before, so after now driving 10 ish miles since filling up it says my range is 239 miles and my estimated mpg is 32 mpg... That cars 12.5 gallon tank is still nearly full as 10 miles barely touched it so it's guessing my range is going to be less than its bass mpg and max miles per tank should be? It just makes no sense why Honda would take something that worked fine on the previous gen models amd screw it up. At this rate at some point if I drive enough on this tank my meter will drop to under 100 miles range. Then if i fill up it will still say the range on this new tank is less than 100 miles. This makes the range meter totally useless! The major issue is the meter is not increasing or even resetting. My old civic after each fill up the range meter would reset back to 380 miles on its own. It would increase or decrease as I started driving based on my current mpg.
A little advanced but might wanna see if there is a test in the diagnostic mode.. But only test.. Dont change anything.. Or leave to the dealer
