The Dithering Throttle - 2016 Honda Civic Long-Term Road Test
A long road trip to Oregon exposed a subtle throttle surge when our 2016 Honda Civic is driven at constant speed on an absolutely level road.

As for the "dithering throttle", my Civic Touring has just under 12,000 miles and I haven't experienced anything like Dan describes. Since Honda released a TSB and a respected auto journalist reported that he experienced it, it's clearly a real problem, but apparently doesn't affect all units. And since it doesn't affect all units, it must be something that can be solved on the affected units.
