Hi, if it's below 1500 RPM it is more likely to be the EGR valve. I have the issue too. I cleaned out the EGR valve and it was OK for a while (a few weeks) and now has come back. I think I'll have...
Hi, our Jazz is a 03 VTI auto with only 75K (no probs so far) and it still has the original battery. Thats getting to 8 years. Thats the most I have had on any car. The car runs fine however I do...
I called Honda and they spoke with the Technical team for Australia. Officially the 02 & 03 where never tested so that is why they do not include it for compatability. Unofficially the guy on the...
Hi,
officially from the federal chamber of automative industries (See link below) only Jazz's 04 - onwards are E10 compatable.:( Just wanted to know if anyone knows exactly why and also what...
Hi, could someone let me know what the contact details are for the AMSOIL distributor in Brisbane because the one in Melbourne tells me that they don't have the EA oil filters for the Jazz (a bit...
Hi, on my 03' Jazz when I switch on the lights (full beam) and then switch the air-con on I get a slightly higher pitch noise which I can hear from inside the car (and outside) coming from under the...
From 02 to middle/end of 03 the gli did NOT come with keyless entry. Honda added it to the gli in 04' I believe. I remember because I was considering getting the gli but I bought a VTI instead.
Hi Thommo,

Jazzdude,
thanks for your info on the XM1's. Did you find that the ride improved ie. didn't feel the bigger bumps as much. The reason I ask is that they claim that the XM1's have a good ride as...
Hi Jazzdude,
where the Michelin XM1's a lot quiter then the yokohama aspecs? I am thinking of putting th XM1's on as the aspecs are getting very noisy.
I agree with the negative comment on the Yokahama Aspecs. I have nearly 40K on mine and they are starting to get quite noisy. They still have a fair amount of tread but my wife hit the gutter a bit...
When checking & adjusting the valve clearances the engine has to be stone cold (check your manual and I think under the bonnet). That is the reason why they asked you to leave the car overnight. The...
Hi all,
the new oil which is to replace the ATF-Z1 oil for our CVT's (called CVTF) is already sold in New Zealand. Does anyone know if you can buy it here yet? I checked with one dealer and they...
Cameltree,
what are the symptoms of the clutch startup problem? Does it effect your mileage as well. My understanding is you feel a vibration when starting off. How bad is the vibration?
Hi all,
I went to Repco yesterday and asked if they had an aftermarket service/workshop manual for the Honda Jazz. He actually rang up the publishers and they said there is NO aftermarket...
I told the guys at Astoria Honda and they also said it isn't a problem. They looked at it and they said they applied some grease. I don't get the click anymore. Anyway my old corolla always seems to...
