Got myself a Jazz
« on: May 30, 2017, 09:05:18 PM »
Hi guys, first time Jazz owner.  Picked up a green 2003 1.4 SE.  60k on the clock, 1 previous owner full history for £600 :)

Anything I should know?  Do these models have the mpg trip computer? :)

Cheers, Phil

You get mpg over trip distance by cycling through the mileage/trip/mpg button; hold it down on trip to zero it.

Hello and welcome. :)

Is yours a manual or auto? Manual cars from this era with low miles can suffer from noisy gearbox bearings - not terminal but can get very noisy. Autos (CVT) can suffer from juddering and need on-schedule CVT fluid changes. Juddering may require a few fluid flushes to cure.

Boots can leak water, collects around the jack/spare wheel, easy DIY fix though.

Radios can lose sound, still displays the station name and vol up/down counter but no sound is played. CD/tape player (and AUX if fitted on '06+ cars) still work as normal. £5 replacement part but requires radio to removed and getting handy with the soldering iron.

A few recalls  - airbag inflator, window switches and light switch. Visit the Honda website (http://www.honda.co.uk/cars/owners/recalls-and-updates.html) and contact a Honda dealer if necessary.

Lots of topics on here regarding these issues, start reading here: https://clubjazz.org/forum/index.php?topic=1156.0
