To bring everyone up to speed since my last post in this thread. My car now has 103K km's on it and overdue for it's 100K service. The CVT flush worked for a week after they did it @ 90K service then came back again. It's to the point now where the car is terrible to drive so I finally took it back and asked them what is Honda's stand point on this known issue. The service guy confirmed there is a 7 year/140K km extended warranty for this issue. Mine is 6.5years old so just makes it through.
If your car is currently Jan 2005 or newer and has this issue, GET IT FIXED NOW UNDER WTY. It is covered. I went to VonBibra on the Gold Coast for this advice which confirms another posters 7yr wty claim from another dealer.
Their plan of attack is flush the fluid again and log a case with Honda for a new starter clutch. Now I know this is covered I'll be chasing it down like no tomorrow. Should this fail I'll be at them again. Previously I was going to wait until it died then spend the 3K to replace the CVT.
The service manager also discounted my 100K service and the wife's 120K Euro service too when they are done over the coming weeks. We have spent a lot with them over the years servicing 2 Honda's so I hope they look after me.
I'll post back the outcome of the service which is getting done Saturday 14/1/12.
Can you please provide more details on the 7yr wty claim for Honda Jazz CVT start clutch shudder problem, called my local dealer Larke Hoskins homebush and they didn't know anything about it, called honda australia and they didnt know anything about it either even after I told them I have confirmation from 2 other owners.
