Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Re: iVtec RPM activation?

« Last post by Marco1979 on Today at 04:27:38 PM »

You can read more about ivtec here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/VTEC. It seems to me it is not like in older Hondas that you can feel the moment it goes from low to high lift profile. It is much more refined, using also load and throttle position and not just rpm. It seems to optimize constantly, regardless the rpm.

Needs a few more to follow suit and that throws this silly EV mandate back at the Gov

Had the Brake Module replaced on both our Jazz and CRV hybrids.

Frighteningly pricey just for at £1,578 just for the module itself.

Thanks to ALL who pushed HONDA back on this one!

Just had mine done at Listers Stratford upon Avon
Very efficient, pleasant, took about 2hrs
A slight smell of petrol which they warned me about and apologised for,  and said if it didn't go away in a day or 2 then get back in touch.
Everything works including the handbrake warning

Does anyone know the RPM when the iVtec kicks in on a Honda Jazz MK2 1.4?

I would be interested in the answer

I have a CVT model, and when you select S,I am sure the VVT engages,

Far more spritely than in normal D

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015-2020 / Re: Clicking Noise When Steering/Levelling up

« Last post by embee on Today at 12:18:36 PM »

Probably not the cause of your noise, but FWIW I can comment on one slightly obscure issue which few seem aware of.
On a Suzuki I had a similar apparently random click from the steering column low down.
Checked all the usual suspects with no luck.
In the end it was the preload plunger on the steering rack needing grease and readjusting.
It is a spring loaded thrust pad which pushes the rack into mesh with the pinion. If it gets dry or has too much preload it can make the steering unwilling to self centre and can give the click as it stick/slips with friction.
Most steering racks have this feature in some form.
I read as much as I could find relating to various cars and greased and adjusted mine and problem fixed.
As said,  it maybe nothing to do with this in your case.

Well done Honda, maybe manufacturers are cottoning on to the big EV con at last

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015-2020 / Re: New Battery required

« Last post by ColinB on Today at 09:26:43 AM »

Hello. Which battery did you get exactly? I'm about to replace it and mine is not original.

I've just replaced mine after 9.5 years. Cox Motor Parts advised this one ...
https://www.coxmotorparts.co.uk/2016-jazz-battery/genuine-honda-jazz-1-4-petrol-battery-2016-onwards/
... but there seem to be several options depending on exactly which model Jazz you have. Contact them with your VIN and ask.
NB the website contains an error because there's no such thing as a "1.4 2016-2019 Jazz" (they're all either 1.3 or 1.5). Have told Cox but they don't seem to want to change it.

 I have believe for some that, that for the short to mid term this is the solution.

In my view - well done Honda
