Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Honda Extra Warranty

« Last post by davejazz on June 09, 2026, 11:37:47 PM »

Good question and I don't know the answer, she was in the administration office and kept emphasising that prices for
extra warranty were going up July 1st I think that was a shove to make you take it, what I can add is this, the salesman
who sold me the car was honest and genuine [was moving to a different car maker dealership in two months time]
anyway he said to me actual words , if you have to use Honda assistant all the AA will do is come out with another
battery.

Did you originally have the 3 year warranty?

I ask because my Jazz is a 72 plate, but I have the 5 year warranty, and in August it is due for the 4th service. I intended to purchase another 2 years at the end of the 5.. but unsure if you can buy the extra before the 5 is up.

Yes brought new end of sept 23 , I'm sure Honda will get in touch with you 2 or 3 months before your warranty is due to finish,
Don't know if I'm right but sounds like if you are not the first owner someone took another 2 year warranty out when the 3 was finishing.

I am the first owner, and I negotiated the extra 2 years during the sale.

When I purchased mine new in May 22, there was a finance deal on, which, if I kept it open for at least 6 months, I received 5 years warranty, and 5 years servicing. Cost me approx £100 interest.

Sometimes I forget which wheel was in which corner.

Hint: Take a page out of the book of the professionals: They use a crayon to mark the tyres (before removing!) with FL / FR / RL /RR, so they will exactly know, which wheel should go where while refitting them (tyre rotation respected).

Do you guys rotate tyres every 10k km btw?

I usually rotate wheels at the same time when I change between summer and winter wheels. It helps to wear the front and rear tyres more evenly, so that you can replace them all 4 at the same time.

Sometimes I forget which wheel was in which corner. In that case I measure tread depth and put the less worn out tyres to front, to even out the wear.

I think it is also okay to not rotate tyres. In that case the front tyres wear out quicker than the rear ones, and you have to replace the front tyres first, 2 tyres at a time. In this case it might be advisable to move the brand new 2 tyres to rear, in order to have better aquaplaning resistance on the rear to avoid losing control of the car when driving at motorway speeds on wet road.

As I have seasonal wheels they get rotated on every change (spring and autumn) by my dealership (I have the wheels stored / cleaned / balanced by them).
Rotating the tyres helps to even out tyre wear - the Honda e:HEV drive train has quite some torque and hence taxes the front wheels quite a bit (depending on driving style, of course!).

In Car Entertainment / 2010 Jazz Car Mats Wanted

« Last post by J985 on June 09, 2026, 08:22:10 PM »

My 2010 Jazz Sports has knackered front mats in it and there are no location studs to hold them in place. Is it possible to DIY some studs so I can install mats with hold in place holes/clips?

Thanks for posting this! I didn't realise that this may be an issue. On my 2nd Jazz. Previous one was a 1.2 2012 with 79k. This one, 2015 75k 1.4 ES+ iVTEC.
Didn't bother taking the wheel off but managed to lie on my back and manoeuvre my hand right to top of fuel filler above passenger rear wheel and pull out most dirt (USE GOGGLES, mask and NO SLEEVES). The amount of dry dirt I removed nearly filled a small bucket! Crazy. Must have been accumulating for many years (just bought the car). I cleaned all of the dirt out - best done after a few dry days btw. Also cleaned the mud flap channels - loads there too! After cleaning out and a soft wire brush scrub I clarted the whole area with Waxoyl Underseal. Luckily ZERO RUST evident, so, hopefully, should be protected for many more years.

The centre console for my 2010 Jazz that also surrounds the handbrake has a tray at the front that has two locators either side to hold a two drink cup insert, anyone know the part number or where I can locate one?

Do you guys rotate tyres every 10k km btw? (one of the maintenance steps in the manual). I'm planning on doing it, i have a pair of jack stands.
