Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: 12V Battery after long stand still
« Last post by coldstart on May 01, 2024, 05:12:30 PM »...
Due to (medical) circumstances, the car was not used for 71 days (10 weeks, 2½ months).
...
With fingers (also toes and eyes) crossed I pressed the unlock button on the key.
Flashing, mirrors unfolding and everything seems ok.
Thank you for the positive feedback on this topic!
And a hearty welcome back! I hope you are well again!

Off Topic (Non-Honda) / Re: sunglasses for driving
« Last post by ColinB on May 01, 2024, 05:06:22 PM »I've never used photochromic lenses, you're right they don't darken down fully inside a car (opticians promote this as a benefit, "ideal for night driving"!) and also they can take a while to return to clear when you go indoors from bright sunlight. I use polarised clip-ons to reduce glare off the road (reflected light is polarised), but you have to search around to find some with a very light tint. Of course it reduces transmission of any other polarised light as well, so some screens look dim.

I’m very sensitive to glare, if I wasn’t I would prefer a normal tinted pair of glasses.

Mine don't darken behind glass anywhere near as dark as being out in the open

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Mk4 2021 Jazz Brake failure
« Last post by Kremmen on May 01, 2024, 03:46:25 PM »Same here, very low mileage and I could do without it for a few weeks
Just glad I subscribed to Which? Legal about a decade ago, they can fight my corner if I get any nonsense like some posts here
This is clearly a manufacturing fault as demonstrated by a recall in some countries

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Tyre deflation false alarms
« Last post by Peter5145 on May 01, 2024, 03:34:09 PM »I have a Mk 3 which is approaching five years old, and recently I've been getting a lot of false alarms or overzealous warnings from the tyre deflation indicator.
Very often it seems that as soon as I build up some speed on the motorway and the air in the tyres warms up, it triggers the indicator. I carry a pressure gauge and a pump, so it's usually no more than a minor inconvenience. Generally I find all four tyres are properly inflated anyway.
As I recently had a genuine puncture leading to full deflation of the tyre, I can't just ignore it and have to stop and check when convenient, but surely it's being very over-sensitive.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Spacesaver spare wheel
« Last post by Peter5145 on May 01, 2024, 03:20:30 PM »I have a Mk 3 Jazz and recently had a puncture resulting in full deflation of the type when I was about 60 miles away from home. Fortunately when I bought it I specified a space-saver as an extra and so was able to change the wheel and get home safely. Without this I would have been looking at recovery and considerable inconvenience.
Yes, it doesn't happen very often, but when it does the spare wheel makes a big difference. The lack of even provision for a spare wheel makes me reluctant to replace it with a Mk 4 when the time comes.

Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Re: Gearbox Mount / Left Engine Mount
« Last post by ssashton on May 01, 2024, 02:11:34 PM »Looks like it could be 50850TG0T03 or 50850TG0T51 but I do see mention of this being for automatic transmission. Perhaps they use the same mount?
