Hello fellow Jazz owners.
Have searched the Forum on this subject, cannot find what I am looking for, so here goes, advice please for disgruntled owner of the only faulty Jazz in the world.....
Own a 2013 1.2S since new. Currently 42000 miles. Serviced by Honda. Last May the engine management light came on, (30 odd thousand miles) with the resulting, almost dangerous loss of power. The computer said throttle bodies, so Honda kindly changed them about £400. Everything ran well until Thursday, when the light came on again, power reduced. Has anybody any advice? (Apart from sell it). Has anybody suffered the same experience? If so what was the fault?
I suspect that the computer has limited fault codes, and therefore if a wire is broken or similar, it probably won't register it, and interpret as programmed. I am upset at the thought of spending another £400. Is there a way to reset the EM Light?
As an aside, the car is parked most of the week, short journeys are the exception, usually nothing less than 17 miles. I drive progressively, so the engine is not laboured.
This was my first Honda car (had and have Honda motorbikes). Bought for reliability as a priority. I liked this car so much, I kept it after the 3 year expiry of the PCP. I now feel I cannot trust it. I am strongly considering returning to Toyota (had them for about 11 years), Suzuki or even Hyundai with their 7 year warranty.
