And the 8th gen civic *may* have flash for persistent storage of info. I don't know and I doubt anyone here knows that for a fact unless they have the actual schematic. Even identifying a flash chip on the schematic may not mean that it is used to store the data mentioned in this post. It may just hold the actual ecu program (brains).
So all we can do is assume.

tis true... good point
