@Domenick - noticed that No 4 link is missing 'https://' - was trying to open up the SB PDFs and could not log into the forum. Finally caught that the link was not secured.

Also, it may be a good idea to collect the PDFs of all SBs and put them in the first post? Currently looking for 18-091 for example.. TIA.

Right now, we have a link in the first post that goes to a thread for the service bulletins. That thread is a bit long, but it does give the SBs some context. I worry sticking them all in the first post here might be too muddled.

Suggestions?
 
Any chance of adding a tool to be able to mark all forum threads as READ? I've seen this on other forums. Just got back from a month on the road and it is really a pain to go through 9-10 pages of threads to clear all the posts while I was gone.

I believe if you click on the arrow beside Forums" above to produce the drop-down menu, the first option is "Mark Forum read." It gives you the choice to marks all forums read, or just the one you are in at the moment.
 
I see that the Clarity PHEV FAQ still has no mention of the frequently discussed HV range problem, or its fix.

Domenick, may I suggest the following addition:

HV range display showing much higher than true range: Discussion of problem and fix for the problem available at Honda dealers
​
This includes links to the two most popular (longest) threads related to this problem, which are:

"Let’s get the HV range problem fixed!!!! Here’s how and a poll to track it"
https://www.insideevsforum.com/community/index.php?threads/let’s-get-the-hv-range-problem-fixed-here’s-how-and-a-poll-to-track-it.871/

...and...

"HV Range Fix is out and ready for dealer install"
https://www.insideevsforum.com/comm...fix-is-out-and-ready-for-dealer-install.2375/

Welcome to the Clarity section of the Forum.

Here are links to our most popular threads for newcomers:
(Am collecting suggestions for threads at the moment. If you have one, please click on "Inbox" on the top right and start a conversation with me. Thanks!)

1) Here's a direct link to Honda's site to get electronic and hard copies of the owner's manual, owner's guide, and navigation manual.
This is the thread that discusses getting them.
2) Frustration with Honda link registration.
3) Multiple systems warning.
4) Honda Service Express Bulletins for 2018 Clarity PHEV
5) Accessories for your Clarity.
6) Honda Clarity versus the Chevy Volt
7) Price paid. Owners discuss the deal they got on their Clarity purchase.
8) Cleaning your Clarity (and its rich Corinthian leather)
9) The HV Range display situation: Discussion of the problem and the fix available at Honda dealers
10) Not a link to a Forum thread, but this post on Inside EVs should answer most of your home charging questions.

Also, please know that "@bobcubsfan Clarity is one of a kind and even the most ardent non-believers have been convinced of this fact after reading his numerous attempts at getting to the bottom of his unruly cars behavior, so please hold comments until you are of the enlightened group."

Domenick there have been many questions lately from new owners complaining about their EV range only being in the 30s. Please post a link for new users that explains the cold weather effects on lithium batteries, and includes a bit about how driving habits can effect EV range.

I added a link to a recent thread discussing the loss of range in cold weather. If you have a better thread suggestion, let me know. And, thanks!
 
Dominick, I propose another addition to your excellent FAQ list:

"Charge Strategy for Max Battery Life"

Title is self-explanatory. This addresses a question frequently asked by new owners, and this thread has a surprisingly high signal-to-noise ratio. Unlike most forum discussions of the issue, it contains much hard data specifically about the Clarity PHEV, as well as useful advice.
​
 
Is there currently a thread devoted to prospective buyers asking owners for advice on the other side of the decision?
 
 
And if possible, please use the SEARCH feature for your questions before posting new threads as a lot gets discussed - and repeated, often.

-and yes I have been guilty of this too. However the dilution of forum content via divergent but very similar threads weakens the platform's usefulness as an information resource - and this forum is a really good resource!

Cheers, Cash

I'll check to see if it's possible to offer Boolean search. Since I suspect it will not be, here's my workaround: Search InsideEVs Forum.

Either bookmark or just remember that website + site: gives you Google search for a specific domain. Just be sure to leave a single space after the colon.
