« Last post by ninanina on May 12, 2024, 07:06:32 PM »Until my jazz was taken off the road because of the mice damaged engine bay wiring loom -i was delighted by the 37,000 + miles of trouble free motoring ! The jazz drives really well and is a standout from the crowd design !! It’s disconcerting the time honda have taken to supply the replacement loom from japan… and the dealer us now replacing the AC condenser undet warrantry … originally my plan was to run tbe jazz for 7 or 8 years doing my 13-15k miles each year as i expect the hybrid tech to be properly developed and reliable.. its looking like daft things like mirror mechanisms and air con items failing shouldn’t be happening-honda cars have had folding mirrors for years ! Hondas attitude to out of warrantry IMHO show they dont want to keep customers . However good the car is the balance is peace of mind with warrantry and good dealer service ! My dealer is excellent so hopefully when my jazz is back in a week or so it will be trouble free until its 3years old in sept !
I’m sorry to hear that you have had problems with your Jazz
At the moment here are the following reasons why I may not buy the Jazz:
1. The dealer where I had a test drive last week still hasn’t been in contact with me
2. Honda UK not recalling cars for the brake failure
3. Air con condenser leaks
4. Split seats
5. Door mirror motor failures
6. The extra cost of bringing the warranty period to anywhere near Toyota’s offering
It’s all really put me off the Jazz which is such a shame because I love the car in every other respect
I tend to own my cars for a long time so it has to be something that’s reliable and doesn’t need me to run to the dealer on a regular basis
From what I’ve read so far the Mk4 seems to be the most unreliable of all the Mk’s of Jazz

Cannot help with the fuses, as never had any problems in 16 years ownership.
Interesting. My switch is a little button on the mirror adjustment panel next to the steering wheel (right hand side), didn't know it could be in different places.

Idk if it was an option or not) mk1 Jazzes have power folding mirrors, active when the ignition is turned on only though I believe. Little button on the mirror/headlight adjustment panel. There's probably a fuse, check your owners manual for the fuse box diagrams and location (1-2 in engine bay, one behind a panel below the steering column)

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: New Head Unit/Infotainment
« Last post by UKjim on May 12, 2024, 05:38:18 PM »After some thought I'm going to be less adventurous, and I probably won't go for the JOYING (thanks for the recommendation though UKJim). Main reason is I would like to be able to have some recourse if something goes wrong with the unit - I don't have the skills to troubleshoot and fix myselfDoubtful you will find anything from a retail outlet that is in a position to offer installation for below £500. If you purchase online, you will either have to install it yourself or find an independent installer willing to fit it for you but they will offer no warranty unless they supply the goods themselves.
Apart from the Alpine ilx-750d system UKJim mentioned, can anyone recommend a good HU that plays nice with wireless CarPlay and wireless Android Auto? Ideally I'd like to keep the cost down to £500 (including parts and labour).
Thanks

« Last post by shufty on May 12, 2024, 04:55:11 PM »As of now, I am still waiting for the dealership to confirm whether indeed I have the Five Care Package (service, warranty, roadside) before I decide what to do. Salesman on holiday - hence delay.
...What does it say on your order form?
Mine says 5 year care package.

« Last post by UKjim on May 12, 2024, 04:32:47 PM »You are probably correct, but if you are using an aftermarket HU, you will need a new microphone.
AFAIK there isn’t an OEM microphone in the Jazz as phone calls are handled by Bluetooth and use your phone’s microphone.
Surely that can't be correct since I can make HFT calls even when the phone is tucked away in a bag on the back seat. On page 356 or thereabouts in my manual, instructions on using the Hands-Free Telephone system, the picture indicates the microphone is up in the roof within the interior light fitting.
