Worse still is that the front LH wheel bearing is now noisy and isn't covered by "extended" warranty and will cost $ 312 to replace.
    80 K service has now cost $ 1492, not that happy !!!!!!!! I've had lots of cars and "never" had to do bearings at such low KM.
    Think twice re buying another Honda !!!!!

    See, this is what I dont get. My 06 VTI has 70,000k's and the wheel bearings are fine ( run 15 inch mags with 195 tyres from new as well, which should be harder on the bearings ). Why the inconsistencies ?

    p.s. all I've done on my Jazz is regular oil changes, an air filter, one set of front brake pads, and that's it. Cheap motoring for sure.



    PS BEARINGS ARE WHIRRING AT 87 K km's ( right rear )
