Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: New Head Unit/Infotainment
« Last post by zesty_bum on May 13, 2024, 02:16:43 PM »I found an alternative: Sony XAV-AX6050
Anyone had any experiences with this HU?
Going to dig into the specs later but apparently plays nice with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto (which doesn’t always seem to be the case with some of these HUs).

I’m actually quite annoyed also that my local dealer has still not been in contact with me after I had a test drive last week
I just wonder if Honda are going to pull out of the UK? I certainly don’t see many new cars about

IIRC there is no native traffic

They know that after 3 or 4 years a very significant number of the affected units will very probably fail and they expect the customer to pick up a very big bill to fix an otherwise useless car, undriveable unless repaired.
Sorry, not my idea of good customer service. The solution is in their hands, their choice if they wish to maintain their UK market.
I like my mk.3 and intend to keep it, I'll not be buying a new Honda while the status quo persists.

I feel really sorry for those who have been confronted with defects, but I am (almost...) certain that there are many more Jazz drivers like me: no problems (so far) and really satisfied...
Absolutely this is not an anti Honda thread
I am in the market for a new, long term, car and the Jazz fitted my needs perfectly

Even if it cost me £20 a year id be happy, at the moment their map system is pathetic.

« Last post by Bristol_Crosstar on May 13, 2024, 11:51:42 AM »For me, who has now been driving the Jazz EX with a big smileI think it's just normal on social media platforms for people to talk about problems rather than just posting how happy they are with the car. Like you, I've not regretted either of my Mk 4 purchases and have had just one problem (with the a/c on my Crosstar) which was fixed under warranty albeit after a bit of a wait for the part. Before I bought my latest Honda I trawled the market for alternatives but couldn't find anything that came close to the quality/spec of the Honda offering for the price.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Alpine/HERE map and traffic data
« Last post by Bristol_Crosstar on May 13, 2024, 09:17:16 AM »One of the much-discussed issues with the built-in satnav is the lack of traffic data. I have noticed traffic data being mentioned in the advertising of new Honda cars, my car is less than 6 months old but there is no traffic data although there are parameters to switch it on or off in the satnav system. I note that in the Honda configurator for new cars, in the satnav specification it says:
Honda Connect Navigation System will be replaced by Alpine/HERE map data (with live traffic)
This could mean several things:
1) At some point cars will be shipped with revised hardware based on this system
2) There will be a software update (at some point) to enable use of this data on at least more recent Honda Connect devices
3) Once the data is available to Honda cars it will just be a case of switching traffic data on
Having read up a bit more about HERE maps/traffic they are transmitted via free to air DAB signal so no mobile phone connection is required.
Does anyone have further info on this, eg when it's likely to be available?
