Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Air Con problem
« Last post by Victor Delta on July 17, 2026, 11:27:04 PM »Our Jazz is just over 5 years old and the ac condenser was declared faulty during the last service. Main dealer quoted £1040 to replace it although I found a local specialist who said he could do it for £500.
Out of the blue, the dealer came back and said it might be covered by 'extended warranty' if the condenser wasn't damaged by a stone. Sure enough they sent photos (of what turned out to be the leak problem mentioned above) to Honda who then gave the green light to do the repair FOC - to my huge relief.
So, if you have this problem, do get the dealer to check if your vehicle falls in to the relevant category for an extended warranty repair.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Honda Jazz Advance Sport Hev 2024 - speed alarm
« Last post by coldstart on July 17, 2026, 05:42:09 PM »I tried yesterday, it works. No more beeps.By your signature you own a E:HEV EXECUTIVE Jazz, which is definitely pre-facelift and clearly not prone to the MY25 speed-alert-beeps!
Addendum:
In the pre-MY25 models the speed warnings can easily be turned off permanently via the car settings (even the blinking speed sign!) without disabling the built-in (or phone) navigation.

Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Re: Halfords charging me £600 for a washer pump replacement??
« Last post by Synchrotron on July 17, 2026, 04:30:39 PM »To be fair to Halfords, for some small things they are OK. Their mobile tyre fitting service isn't bad, at least in my area (and when their tyres are heavily discounted). And they did save me once, when one of my headlight bulbs failed late on a winter drive home, as I just couldn't pry open the bulb assembly to replace it myself in their car park.
On the other hand, once they sent me a completely wrong rear wiper for my car
I wouldn't trust them with anything more complicated than that, and I would always double-check their prices. They rely on convenience, and the fact that finding car parts post-pandemic/Brexit has become quite an ordeal, especially for older cars.

« Last post by LithalHong on July 17, 2026, 04:26:59 PM »I was wondering about this too when I first got the car! Unfortunately, the MK2 doesn't have a built-in digital speedometer option in the multi-info display. The screen is pretty basic and mostly just handles the trip meter, fuel range, and MPG.
If you really want a digital readout, your best bet is probably plugging a cheap OBD2 heads-up display (HUD) into the port under the dash, or just using a GPS speedo app on your phone. A bit annoying that it's not built-in, but you get used to the analog dial pretty quickly!

Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Re: First impressions of our NEW Jazz
« Last post by jaytee on July 17, 2026, 02:39:35 PM »what MPG are you getting? the jazz does need to be revved a bit more than other cars; i agree that 35 psi makes the steering sharper, it takes a while to get used to a new car. also try a dose of redex and E5 fuel. let us know how you get on and welcome to the forum

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Fixed Pice Servicing - is it a con?
« Last post by Downsizer on July 17, 2026, 02:27:20 PM »I assume you're expecting reactions to this...?Not particularly. I sometimes wash the windows but I leave the rain to do the rest. I live in an apartment block and the lease forbids car-washing. I can’t see the dirt from inside the car!The annual service is the only time my car gets washed!

Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Trying to get car on ramps with CVT
« Last post by paulhipw on July 17, 2026, 02:24:39 PM »Help
Just tried to put the car on a ramp to change the CVT fluid.
When the car got half way up the engine revs went up but the vehicle would not move.
I tried it in "S" mode same thing happened.
Yesterday I got it up ok but the car was cold.
Today I got the engine and gearbox hot but could not get it up on the ramps.
Is this a Starter clutch problem?
