I queried this with the local dealer when mine got it's first service this week.
I got a vague "I think Honda have written to us about this recently, but It's not available yet" kind of answer.
So we're still waiting.

I asked Gordons Honda in Wigan this week and they said May at the earliest!

Called my dealer today and was told that the Mod they had released causes a new problem (not terribly sure what) but they were working on version 3 of the fix.

yeah, we use that excuse in work too!

roughly translates to "we haven't got a clue what you're on about, but we'll make it sound like we've been really busy, and during our rigorous testing schedule we have found something wrong, so we need more time to fix it"

My local dealer in solihull advised that it would be looking more likely May time.

I also heard on the radio a couple of days ago about a subsequent problem also

Now that Whatcar link talks about cars from Nov 2006 to Nov 2007 being affected. Mine is Jun 2006 and most definitely has the problem. I hope this is just a case of crap information.
