Author Topic: New Jazz Hybrid in Melbourne (Read 4296 times)

Hey,

I've recently purchased a 2013 Jazz Hybrid on a runout special. So far, it's been generally good, two seemingly common problems aside (rattling from the rear, excessive offside wind noise). It's well equipped, comfortable (I'm 6ft 4ins) and in the Rallye Red, it looks the business. Also, it's doing 5.1l/100km (55-ish mpg) despite being driven enthusiastically on the hills of Melbourne's Outer-North East. Anyway, I've to go and see how I fix the bloody wind noise now- a 110km/h blast down the freeway today in windy conditions made it very apparent!

Super car, wonderful colour, great taste! Oh, err, looks just like mine!
Glad you are having a good time with it.
I don't notice the wind noise as much with this new shape as with the earlier one. Maybe I am just used to it. I don't get rattling either, but I do carry a lot of stuff in the boot, so perhaps that holds everything tight.

excessive offside wind noise.

I have a cure for that but not one that most would want, right hand drive car and I am deaf in my right ear and have a hearing aid, I just turn it off so don't hear the wind noise.
