Title: New Honda Jazz owner
Post by: guest7155 on September 26, 2017, 07:50:33 AM
Hi Everyone, I am new to Honda ownership. Last Thursday, I bought a 2011 Honda Jazz EX CVT AUTOMATIC.
So far I am very pleased with it, just reading the user manual finding where everything is and what it does.

I decided to buy a Honda for their reputation of being reliable, I sincerely hope that my purchase does not disappoint.

Is there anything I need to know about them, anything I need to look out for.

The only thing I am finding at the moment is, the drivers seat is not that comfortable, any solutions to this, how do others find this.

Is there a Radio / CD / Sat nav, which could be a straight transfer from the standard Radio / CD ?

Apart from that, hope to be a very happy Honda Jazz owner for many years 😊

Welcome. Woody. A CVT requires the transmission oil changed at the prescribed intervals and ONLY use the Honda recommended oil. That appears to be about the only issue that comes up regularly.

The sat nav version of your car is pretty rare so not many 2nd hand units crop up at a decent price.  The fascia can be swapped for a generic double_din unit although you do need one to accommodate the passenger airbag indicator which is just transferred over.  If you check eBay / Amazon / Aliexpress you will find many units like this:

Hello and welcome.

A 2011 Jazz maybe subject to the Tataka airbag recall, visit here to find out: http://www.honda.co.uk/cars/owners/recalls-and-updates.html
