Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Re: Dash mat recommendations
« Last post by Synchrotron on September 12, 2026, 10:51:35 AM »Thank you both for the ideas!
My photochromic lenses are definitely legal for driving (I checked!). It is true that they don’t darken as much inside the car as they do outside, but for me that is just enough to take the edge off the worst of the glare when I’m driving around sunrise/sunset. In full daylight I wear (polarised) prescription sunglasses, and at nighttime the photochromic lenses stay fully clear. I just wanted to avoid fiddling with multiple pairs of glasses while driving at sunrise/sunset, which is what I used to do before (I would wear one pair on my head and one over my eyes and swap them when needed).
When I got my last prescription, I asked about clip-on options first, and I was told there were no suitable options for me, as I can only wear a narrow range of frames (my head is quite small!)
I will definitely do a little more digging when I next need to update my prescription, though.

I would recommend shutting the climate system off when parking, so that on the next restart the engine will be off and you can drive off on electricity alone. Turn it on once you are out of town or when the engine starts up. That saves a few mpg
Good luck!

« Last post by teralek on September 12, 2026, 10:09:15 AM »Hi everyone. I'm back in the club.
After driving a 2008 Jazz for many years and then a 2010 Civic, I'm coming back to the Jazz. I'm picking it up on Monday a 2023 facelift version advance. This is my first time owning a automatic gearbox.
Any tips or tricks?

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Finally got rid of the Jazz

Strange... very strange... A post that was edited and re-posted on September 2nd has vanished without a trace...
Anyway, I can now report that the title of this topic has become a reality for us: yesterday, we reached an agreement with a buyer.
It’s someone who used to work at our former Honda dealership —now at Hyundai— so he knows our Jazz well (and can still access all the records...
).The agreed price is significantly higher than the trade-in offer from the BYD dealer, so we’re happy, and the buyer is happy too!
The Jazz will go to its new owner once our ORANGE

« Last post by Bristol_Crosstar on September 11, 2026, 06:54:02 PM »Re the Inster unfortunately Hyunda EV's have a known issue with the ICCU which leaves the car unable to charge. It can be fixed under warranty but there is a shortage of parts so the car can be off the road for a period of time. As far as I'm aware they haven't fixed it yet.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Clicking noise when steering
« Last post by RomanianJazz on September 11, 2026, 02:14:04 PM »Hello Jazz havers, I am running into an issue with 2021 Jazz EX. I have a clicking noise when steering the car with 'fervor' let's say, it doesn't reproduce when stationary. The sound is pretty much the same as the click that happens when I tap the break, like an actuating switch. I'll post a url with the video and let me know if anyone has any ideas.
Honda dealership told everything looks in order and shrugged. The car behaves as normal.

Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Re: Dash mat recommendations
« Last post by Marco1979 on September 11, 2026, 12:28:25 PM »Photochromatic glasses respond to the UV part of the spectrum. When you are indoors or in a car, most of the UV will be absorbed by the windscreen (which has a UV reflecting coating to keep heat out, as do window panes). So it will not do much to prevent glare.
You could try a black towel to see if it makes some difference. You can easily mould it over your dash and specifically cover the parts that annoy you most. Or get Polaroid prescription glasses; very happy with mine! Good luck!

Also, photochromic lenses aren't recommended for driving and might not be legal to use.
For driving I have clip-on flip-up polarised lenses for my glasses. I often use them in low sun conditions even in winter.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: loss of acceleration
« Last post by nowster on September 11, 2026, 10:49:06 AM »I had a tile (location tile) attached to the key ring and wondered if that may have affectedThey're BlueTooth LE beacons. Very low power 2.4GHz. The key doesn't use that frequency.
But unwanted RF can affect the car's systems. A couple of years ago driving past RAF/MOD Sealand near Queensferry, NE Wales, on the A494, the Automatic Cruise Control would randomly drop out and not reset until I'd put the shift into Park. Even now, Android Auto Wireless will reliably drop connection and restart when I drive past the base (about two thirds of the times, but always at the same exact location).

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015-2020 / Re: common alloy issue?
« Last post by Lord Voltermore on September 11, 2026, 09:09:22 AM »I think refurb is probably the way to go. The following post lists some of the possible pitfalls of using other wheels
https://clubjazz.org/forum/index.php?topic=18431.msg158797#msg158797
Problem with alternative non standard wheels is you will probably also need to budget for new tyres, and permanently fitting non standard wheels on a car of this type and age can affect the resale value ,and maybe upset insurers.
I suppose you could buy used Honda wheels, maybe steels, or damaged alloys ,with tyres to use for a few days. And get some of the cost back by reselling them later. Or fit them with winter friendly tyres (maybe all seasons) . Or maybe even get this second set refurbished later to improve their resale value. But I expect you would still make a loss greater than the cost of hiring a car or using a taxi for a few days.
You could try complaining to the main dealer. I doubt they would accept liability, but in view of your extra need for a working car they might as a goodwill gesture lend you a spare set of wheels for a few days, etc.
