Honda Jazz Mk3 2015-2020 / Re: Jazz cutting off whilst driving.
« Last post by Marco1979 on Today at 09:49:52 AM »Incidentally, this …Sorry, my mistake. Not quite familiar with the UK system yet (65 is late 2015 if I look it up correctly). Oops!Did you already replace the fuel pump ( a recall which Honda is now doing for free for all Mk3 Jazzes)?… isn’t quite correct. There is a recall, but it doesn’t apply to early Mk3 Jazzes (like mine, also a 65 plate like yours). Try entering your reg. no. in this page to see if your car is affected:

No, my car doesn't have any recalls and I haven't taken it to the dealer yet. I hadn't thought about the fuel pump.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Speedometer deviation
« Last post by Lord Voltermore on Today at 07:19:57 AM »Can someone please explain why you would swap between a summer and winter tyre? (especially going up/down in wheel size too)Maybe a hassle in the UK, but coldstart (and sometimes me) are not in the UK. Its a legal requirement in many countries to have winter rated tyres , between certain calendar dates ,whether you need them or not ,and in some ,such as Germany, it is a legal requirement to have the 'appropriate' tyres for the current weather conditions , regardless of date,even if it snows in July,( which has happened to me more than once.
The wet rating definitely won't be that different, and unless you are in sub arctic conditions and may need snow chains.. here in the UK why on earth would you go through all the hassle of changing all 4 corners!
) This is why all season tyres with a winter rating 'three peaks' marking are now so popular in Europe as you are legal whatever the weather and location, without having to change wheels or tyres. And IMO a sensible choice if possible ,even in the UK. Full winter tyres are better than all seasons if you live somewhere snow is very likely , but they are not usually suitable for summer use. If you need to swop between summer and winter tyres you either need to get a set of tyres changed on the same rims twice a year (maybe £10 a corner each time) or buy a second set of rims and tyres. (or use all seasons all year round
) With the Jazz there is a much larger choice of tyres in 15" and they can be significantly cheaper. On my set I saved £40 a corner by using 15" wheels) I have a special reason for choosing all seasons for my second set of wheels rather than full winter. . I sometimes spend several weeks in Europe. I am there now. I drove over in early april, lovely weather. But it has snowed twice since I was here. I drive back in May.With all seasons (and a set of snow chains) I am ready for anything .
Incidentally when I swop between my 16" summer and 15" winter wheels the TPMS is usually quite happy and doesnt need resetting. (I ensure their pressures are the same) The above web site shows the rotating circumference of the 16" tyre as 1908 mm and the 15" as 1887 mm but the system presumably still compares rotation speed with speedometer reading and would be 'unaware' that speed accuracy has changed. .
Also if the tread of a 16" tyre wears from say 8mm to 3 mm the wheel diameter will be 2 x 5mm less. - half way to becoming the same diameter and therefore circumference as a brand new 15" tyre . So even this will have a slight affect on speedo accuracy. Personally I think the differences are too small to worry about.
Also opponents of the new compulsory speed alarm will point out that if you need to set cruise control or drive at an indicated 107 kph to achieve a genuine 100 kph the system will be bleeping at you too soon.

« Last post by ColinB on Today at 07:13:29 AM »Ouch, that sounds horrible! Do you mean that, when you put your foot down, the engine actually stops? I would have expected something like that to have left a fault code behind, especially if it’s triggered the dashboard alarms … have you tried a Honda dealer, they might have better fault detection gadgetry than an independent?

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015-2020 / Re: Safety Recall - Fuel Pump
« Last post by Basil on Today at 07:01:30 AM »mine done over 3 weeks ago but Honda and DVLA websites still showing the recall outstanding.
Anyone know how long it takes for the recall to be cleared ?
I had the recall work done the beginning of March and it was cleared on the "DVLA Car MOT History" site more or less the next day I think but I received a recall letter from Honda last week or the week before.

« Last post by Nicksey on Today at 05:50:39 AM »I have the 16" fitted to the EX, and noted that when I am sticking to 30 that my GPS dashcam tells me I am only doing 28.. and this discrepancy seems to follow throughout my speed.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Speedometer deviation
« Last post by Kremmen on Today at 04:31:42 AM »You do need to be careful these days as speed technology comes in
All my old Civics had speedo to GPS variances of 4% to 10% (my 2007 Civic speedo was 10% over read)
The latest EU rules dictate that speedos must be far more accurate which I have noticed in my MK4 Jazz. My Speedo is only 1mph different to GPS

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015-2020 / Jazz cutting off whilst driving.
« Last post by EdgarFerns on Today at 01:46:06 AM »Hello everyone,
Wondering if you can please help/advise.
I have a problem with my Honda Jazz car 65 plate.
Whilst driving, runs ok on low revs within city, but when I put my foot down on accelerator for speed, all alarms light up and the car cuts off. I have to turn the key all the way back and turn on again and it works again. No fault codes are registered in any of the machines in the garages I tried.
We think it could be the TPS, so we reset/relearn the sensor. It worked for a few hours and did the same thing again. could it be an ECU problem? or the throttle body or the pedal itself?
The numbers on the ECU says
37820-58R-E04
H262-102955
A83
Thanks.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Mk4 2021 Jazz Brake failure
« Last post by DemoDave on April 29, 2025, 11:22:10 PM »If you had brake failure , that is the brake pedal doesn’t operate anything -then the only option is to use the handbrake . This applies all four disc brakes using the electric servo motors -powered by the 12v battery -this means it’s a fail safe system in case of a failure in The HV battery and hybrid system . Once stopped the car cannot be moved without powering up the HV system . I believe ( and expect someone can confirm ) that the Honda hybrid braking technology is as Toyotas . They have a mechanical link in the brake pedal which can operate the powered hydraulic circuit in case if an electronic failure in the braking controls . The hybrid braking is mostly accommodated using the generator / electric motor via regen braking . Only at low speeds are the disc brakes used and in parking . Also when the vehicle stability dynamic controls require individual / multiple wheel braking will the discs brakes be activated .I’m including emergency braking as vehicle stability as this is effectively is anti lock braking element
