Have had my Jazz stand up for a short while, and started using it again to find the gearbox is stiff to move into a drive, so wondered what it could be?

Any suggestions please?

I'll have stab.

Selector lever cables not operating silky smooth?

Wander down this troubleshooting list: http://www.hondafitjazz.com/manual/A00/HTML/M2/SAA2EM2E15100000000HBAT00.HTML

and very near the bottom of the page there is the symptom "Shift lever does not operate smoothly" along with possible causes and notes.

Do I get free coffee for my Bialetti?

Same here. Honda garage were not very helpful - "never seen that before!"

As soon as the temperature rises (reached 20C today) the lever becomes very stiff to move. In the winter it is normal.
I have an iShift 2009 1.4 EX Model. Probably about my only complaint.
