checking valve clearance
« on: September 19, 2014, 12:21:29 PM »
My 2010 Jazz has done ~62k and it is telling me that it needs it's valve clearances checking.

I've seen this http://clubjazz.org/forum/index.php?topic=318.0
and this http://clubjazz.org/forum/index.php?topic=6391.msg27170#msg27170

However, Honda Milton Keynes say it needs doing and want £100.

Honda Northampton say it doesn’t need doing till 72k miles. They will want £100 too.

My local independent garage in Northampton says it doesn’t need doing at all.

So I’m a bit stuck!

Any advice appreciated  :)

Wait till 72k then get them checked but I would very surprised if they were out.
