Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Local dealer vs best price?
« Last post by nomis on Today at 07:35:51 AM »does the local dealer or any other offers have the 5 year service deal - "worth" £750
I tried that with the local dealer but he was having none of it. He also claimed that Honda isn't sweetening finance packages with the 5 year service plan at the moment. I did find one dealer on Autotrader claiming to offer a discount of £699, but it turned out he was selling the car at list and throwing in the 5 year service plan for free (and I think the official price is now £799). That's actually a slightly better offer than Carwow, but the dealer is even further away.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Local dealer vs best price?
« Last post by nomis on Today at 07:08:52 AM »Hi,
I'm in the market for a new MY24 Jazz (cash purchase). My local Honda dealer (6 miles away) has shown no enthusiasm for selling me one and has flat refused to offer any form of discount. He's convinced he can sell all of his allocated build slots at full price, and I dare say he can. Some brokers such as AutoeBid have removed the Jazz because there are so few deals to be had.
Carwow came up with 3 offers, one at list, one with £272 off, and one with £692 off. I'm tempted by the latter, but the dealer in question is 120 miles away. Would you say it's worth it even if they will deliver to my door? My main concern is getting fixed any little problems which only show up in the weeks and months after delivery.
I've never bought a new car and still wouldn't had the shortage of supply not distorted the secondhand market so badly. I've traditionally bought a decent nearly new car off the forecourt and run it into the ground. The Jazz is to replace a 15 year old Fiesta which I bought as a pristine 6 month old example from a main dealer at 40% below list. These days you'd be lucky to get more than a few hundred quid off anything under a year old*. Buying new seems to make sense if you can afford to wait for the car to arrive.
* Though of course the recent price hike means that any MY22 Jazz is at least a couple of grand cheaper than the equivalent MY24 version.
Cheers,
Nomis

If I'm not properly paying attention, I turn the key, and it doesn't start. Try again, this time with brain engaged and left foot firmly on the floor, and there's no problem.I agree

« Last post by monkeydave on June 05, 2023, 05:48:21 PM »i had this exact problem on a VW a long time ago, the AA man looked at the key with the cowl off but there was something loose with the solonoid on the battery, after he fiddled with it it was ok for the rest of the ownership of the car, he did not use any new parts
i am not sure if the jazz has a battery solonoid, but it does have a solonoid on the starter motor that might be having problems

Honda Jazz Mk1 2002-2008 / Re: moving off uphill
« Last post by embee on June 05, 2023, 03:06:26 PM »Thanks for that, in which case definitely change the fluid and bleed the system. Again I guess the fluid is likely common with the brakes? My Yaris has a hydraulic clutch and definitely benefited from a fluid change and bleed when I got the car (well serviced but 30k miles and may not have ever been changed??)

« Last post by Marco1979 on June 05, 2023, 01:52:41 PM »Does it help if you do not start right away but let the key in the ON position for a few seconds? It sounds like something has not quite powered up properly (a software bit).
