Fixed or Variable Servicing?
« on: June 28, 2009, 06:03:18 PM »
Can anyone with a UK 1.4 Jazz confirm or otherwise if their MID shows service reminder info.  I have a 1.4EX i-shift & mine doesn't appear to (at least I can't get it to !).

Thanks
Graham

If you have the latest Jazz the service reminder comes on the lower of the 2 computer controls (the one that show the number of miles since last petrol fill). You need to press this about 3 times to get to the service reminder which tells you the number of days until the next service is due.

The display shows either days (using a sun/moon icon) or miles/km to next service, depending on which would be the first to be reached by its estimates. On the EX each tap on the lower button on the bottom right of the steering wheel cycles between showing the car's mileage, the A trip counter, the B trip counter and the service info.

Thanks for all replies.
Looks like mine isn't working.  pressing the (lower) button just cycles between Trip A, Trip B & total mileages.  Nothing on the upper display changes.
I'm not desperately worried, my annual mileage is quite low so I'd be looking at 12 month service anyway.

Having recently had to make a series of 100 mile trips on demanding rural roads, mine's changed from 90 days to 1400 miles (ie. wanting an "A" service at 8500 miles).

Thanks once more for these extra replies.
So far I've only done about 2200 miles (in 4 months) so maybe something will show up as mileage increases.

Thanks all again.

The service reminder indicator on my ES did not work when the car was delivered as it had not been set during the pre-delivery inspection. This was corrected when I took the car in to have a number of delivery issues solved.

Hi I am new to the forum
Bought my new Jazz (GE model ) 1.4 ES in Nov 08
Have just done nearly 10000 miles and the service indicator is shouting at me. 

I booked it into the Honda dealer today for its first service but when I got there I was told that the service requirement was 12500 miles or 12 months -so no service carried out.

Looking at other posts there seems to be a problem with the service indicator - hope Honda will get this issue resolved quickly

Just upgraded from my third 1.4 SE to a new 1.4 EX and very pleased. I average approx 20K-25K per year and I also do not show (yet) any service indicator information which may appear later. My service book lists 12,500 miles or 1 year and according to the book items are replaced as the previous model schedule. The handbook shows you how to reset the service indicator but then the system wouldn't show a dealer what it had recommended. If I am having the 'full' 12.5K service anyway why need the service indicator....very confusing. I'm sticking to 12.5K schedule as service book.

The whole point of the indicator is to make the interval variable depending on the actual driving pattern, so I think your dealer is mistaking - 12500 is a guide, but the actual interval can be higher or lower.

It's been stuck on 930 miles for the last 3 days, despite me driving at least 75 miles over that time.

It's saying 680 miles this evening. Looks like I'll have to book a service soon.
