« Last post by 19sammi88 on Today at 01:30:03 PM »Thanks all for the warm welcome.
Collected the car yesterday. Really lovely to drive. Although it's a 64 plate, it only has 34k on the clock so it feels really new.
Just having a look at all the threads to see what others have done to their cars. I'm hoping to update the head unit first.
If anyone can link me to some interesting threads that'd be wonderful!

« Last post by Toptek on Today at 10:05:27 AM »I too, would advise to leave it. It may be one of those things, the audio system may just not match your expectations.
We had a 2006 Swift that just didn't sound right regardless of the settings so I gave up and just made do.

I don’t know what happened after they got involved with Renault.

« Last post by No Vice on Today at 06:31:09 AM »Hi, Nothing scandalous, level-wise. I’m 75 years old and I try to put quality well before quantity. I am not talking about radio sourced music. I use the usb input from a pendrive filled with Flac recordings from my lps. I have no idea how other models are equipped but my 2026 bought Crosstar has four speakers in the lower door panels at ankle height. Obviously I have never seen the speakers, only their grilles. I have no real complaints, just an observation. Here’s hoping it’s the only area of the car that doesn’t live up to the quality of the important parts, if you get what I mean.

« Last post by Kremmen on Today at 04:49:48 AM »I was going to ask what volume the OP was using
I never went above 14, mostly 12, and no problem

« Last post by No Vice on June 18, 2026, 11:17:53 PM »When my car’s “newness” has declined a little I might pluck up some courage and investigate removing the door panels and trying to “damp” the space behind the speakers a bit/lot. Moulded plastic is, by definition, a crap material for making speaker baffles so, for now, just lower the volume.

« Last post by Nicksey on June 18, 2026, 09:05:18 PM »Well, Qashqai... Qashqai... Nissan, right? Japanese? What is it with those Japanese cars? Qashqai electronic problems, others constantly dead 12-volt batteries... and dealers disappearing...
It gives the impression that these Japan cars, just like the China cars, are substandard, not well thought out (if you lump them all together).
By most of the reviews, you can add Mazda to this list too.
Me, if I ever win a bit of money and am able to afford another car... it will be a Suzuki

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015-2020 / Re: JAZZ 2018 start/stop
« Last post by inchlook on June 18, 2026, 08:41:30 PM »Mine stopped working around 21/22, the S/S light was showing the issue due to battery condition.
I ignored it because I don't need the S/S but changed the battery two years ago after the car struggled to start in winter morning and during service the dealer said the battery failed the health check.
