Hi,
Been reading here for a while but finally decided to join. I own a 2006 Jazz Sport and had bought it at 102,000 and last June and now have it sitting at 113,000 roughly. In that time I have only had the back box fall off when driving which I know is a common issue with many cars and had happened on my previous MG Rovers too. Mechanics fixed it.
So far I have replaced all brakes both pads and discs. 4 new tyres, oil change, new air and cabin filters, spark plugs, car was serviced and went through MOT with no advisories.
At moment I have two issues to tackle. I am at times getting trouble going into reverse so I assume it needs a new clutch? I drive around 50 miles per day to work and back and have noticed i'm adding maybe 250ml oil every 2,000 miles or so. No oil leaks are visible and no smoke from exhaust. Most of my driving is all motorway so could that potentially be the issue? Going in for service soon anyway so can always ask him to check. Car drives perfectly fine. Engine is smooth and silent.
Rust around the rear wheel arch on outside. Just surface rust so will get paint to cover it. Would like to get another year maybe 2 out of the car before I upgrade to a newer Honda.
Have to say I am really impressed at the reliability of Honda and will be sticking with Honda. I've own BMW 320d previously and a few MG Rovers that were all non stop bother.
Thanks for reading.
