I got a jazz a week or so ago 1.3 5spd manual 2006.
Driving it at night I notice when I let the foot off the gas while driving in hearing well not a grinding sound but something that does not sound very healthy, when I step on the clutch pedal the noise goes away.
At idle in neutral no change of noise.
I will try it with 2 people soon to see if they can detect a noise.
I did a few tests and 1 was to try to go as fast as I can in a straight line and I have noticed the clutch is slipping a little if I drive it hard so I guess its going to need a new clutch soon.
The big question I have is if this noise is related to the clutch going or the gearbox bearings or both.
It's a high milagebcarbaboutb110, 000 miles looks great and drives well.
I got the car for 900 mostly full service history, it has been taken care of, I'm on a budget and could afford a clutch replacement.
But if I get that done and it turns out to be the input bearing on the gear box I will be kicking myself.
I live in Cardiff so if anyone knows any good indy places or guys who do work on the side would be amazing.
I did know one guy but forgot his number.
Do Honda do free inspections, and are they honest?
Thanks so much guys
