I hope for your sake that we have to wait forever for that comment!
That would mean that you spent your money for nothing and never needed a power bank.

« Last post by plutokrat on Today at 08:58:51 AM »i have found G501 - its right behind the speedo. But it looks good. And all i could see that all the cables are well installed.
So i come to the point to give the problem to an expert.

There is an Aussie who put a TypeR engine in a Jazz - ultimate sleeper.

Their website says leads for the 10Ah unit gives 53cm span ( I think) but also says a longer version is available. Worth a check.

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: Honda jazz 2017 ex cvt battery replacement
« Last post by jazzaro on September 24, 2023, 09:31:51 PM »Thanks for this really useful post, I'm also in need of a new battery. Can I just check with you if the above batteries are suitable for my car as well? We have a 2018 MK3 1.5L Sport. I'm not sure if the 1.5 Sport requires a different battery. Also, do you need to register or code the battery when replacing it or is it a straight swap as you do with a normal battery?1.5 Sport and 1.3 trims have the same battery, so all battery models written above are ok for all EUDM GK series Jazz.
Thank you!
I forgot to write the OEM number, 31500-T4P-U01 replaced by 31500-T5A-G11

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Finally got rid of the Jazz
« Last post by Hicardo on September 24, 2023, 08:51:23 PM »Hiya, we have a 2021 Crosstar and a 2022 Yaris Cross Excel.
We like them both for different reasons.
I bought the YC to replace a Golf, and its been loads better. My Golf was a mk8 2020 model, it was incredibly infuriating with software errors and sudden alarms. I couldn't wait to get rid of it. Shame in a way because it drove very well, and super refined, but I could never trust it.
The YC is 100% reliable, that puts it light years ahead of the Golf for me. It also has a bigger boot, and MUCH better fuel consumption, about 15-20mpg more. I use the YC for long trips primarily, and it is better than the Crosstar at this, primarily because it feels bigger and more relaxing on a long run.
Its only slightly more economical than the Crosstar, CS average currently around 63mpg, and YC average currently around 66mpg. My wife prefers the Crosstar, she likes the airy feel, and more places for nick-nacks, slightly more comfortable. I know nobody buys this type of car for hustling along a winding road, but the YC is considerably better, as the steering more responsive, and body control better.
But the Jazz has a plusher ride. The YC has a big boot, but overall its not as versatile as the Crosstar. One big mark for the Crosstar is the retained value which in 2 years has been close to 100%. Not much can match that. Helped by Honda dramatically increasing prices.
Both great cars though. I wish one of them had a sunroof, then id be 101% happy.
Hope that helps!
Cheers!

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Rattling noise from dash (solved)
« Last post by yooser on September 24, 2023, 05:47:22 PM »I also have had rattling noises from various areas of the Jazz and other cars I've owned.
The causes have been mostly my grandchildren putting stones/hard sweets and other various items in the door pockets etc, plus my wife put a pack of hard peppermint sweets,(kept in a small metal box) in the top glovebox which caused a fair old rattle !!
My old banger cars were so noisy I wouldn't have heard any ather noises above the engine/gearbox and rear differential whines and rattles , my mate who had a very old Lada used to say when the rattles stop in his car it meant the part causing the rattle had fallen off !
The good old days -- only through rose-tinted glasses.
