Hi everyone. I have just joined the forum to see if I am just unlucky! I have a Jazz Sport that is only 10 months old. So far.... , the stop start system has failed and has to be reset by the dealer. a brand new clutch fitted as the one out of the factory was slipping badly as it was covered in grease, now the infotainment system has completely failed and I am waiting a new one. my dealer is very embarrassed by these faults and I am losing faith in the car. anyone else had such issues? Should I just cut my losses and sell up? Did not think Friday cars were possible these days!! thanks for any advice …

I have a Honda Jazz 2003. The keys are not remote but maybe are worn so much that it will not start the car when inserted in the ignition. The key will open the doors though. How can I overcome the problem, do I have to buy a new ignition steering lock?

Hi guys I have a MK1 stepwagon, does anyone know where I can get air ride kit of the shelf?

Cat Burglar nicked my Cat. Neighbours had CCTV of the theft. It happened at 11:30 am, took 40 seconds. Trolley jack and a pipe cutter of some sort. They cut the wires to the lambda sensors and cut through the exaust pipes in front and behind the Cat. The rear cut was through the mid section exhaust pipe so that also needs replacing. OK I have questions that I need help with. Honda wanted over 2K for the parts, (Cat, 2 lambda sensors, mid section of exhaust pipe, and fitting kit.) OEM parts at that price are not an option so I went to the internet. My first problem/question was /is identifying my cars details . Some sites asked for the reg number so that…

Hi I changed the battery on a 2006 Honda Accord Diesel. After I started driving I noticed the electronic fuel gauge marking 1 mile left to drive only. I have half a tank of fuel. How do I reset it?

Anyone know if the oil dilution is an issue for the UK models?

My 2021 CR-V went into Brayley’s Honda, Ewell on 17 December 2024 and they identified the problem as the Brake Pedal Simulator. The part was ordered on 18 December, none were available in the UK so the part was put on ‘back order’ and finally arrived from Japan on 14 March. With the repair completed, I got the car back on 19 March 2025 after 92-days! Have to say that Brayley’s, who thought I qualified for a complementary hire car were pretty good but Honda UK were awful. They said that I was not entitled to a hire car as my vehicle was out of warranty even though the repair was being fixed as a ‘warranty’ repair and Honda were picking up the full cost of the part and …

hi so I have two remote fobs for a 2009 Honda Civic and they are beginning to not work very well. You have to press loads of times for the thing to lock or unlock. I have obviously cleaned the connections and changed the batteries, but they must be 16 years old.....so they are wearing out. so my question is this, can you replace the fobs 3rd party without having to pay the million pound to Honda? I noticed Amazon selling the shell to these fobs, but they have like 3 star ratings so I dont trust them. The keys still work in the doors, but would prefer the fobs to work thanks

hey folks has anyone in the uk swapped the radio cd nav unit in a crv 2006ex looking for the easiest option for strait swap over just a bit more up to date,any advise appreciated thanks

Hi All I live in Spain and we have a Mk1 CRV with 285,000km on the clock. Its Automatic and seems to work okay... although I am not 100% confident with it yet. Its had a major service and the head gasket done, along with cambelt and fan bets etc. I notice the revs go quite low at times when at idle and sometimes it feels like it is holding back, I am convinced there are a few sensors that are on their way out but as yet it is not showing any fault codes. In January I need to drive the car back to England and then back to Spain, in all about 3000 miles. Ive done the drive many times in old transit vans and land rovers but never in anything as n…

Hi, We just bought a 2004 Honda Accord estate and would like to fit it with roof rails ( not a roof rack ) Is this possible ? Thanks

I've been thinking about this for quite a while now, can we drink from the exhausts of hydrogen cars?

Hey fellas, nice to meet you all. So, I'm having a bit of an issue here and would like to have the opinion of all of you. If anyone owns a CB125R please do help me with this. For the past few days I have been trying to register my new Bike, my issue is, the model as per Honda website is CB 125 R, but, that is not true. When I checked the documents that I have received from Honda it states as CBF 125 NA. The issue is, when filling up the model in any website or by phone, the only models they have are CBF 125 N Abs (13bhp) or CB 125 R (13bhp). Not only there is a difference of model there but also the price for the premium. For the CB 125 R - 5…

I suppose this topic has been on here before, but, here goes, on my Jazz 2018 tried everything, but get on the motorway and on it comes, does Honda recognize this as a factory fault or do they refuse to create a fix for this?

The long awaited 9th generation Honda Civic is so close to cruising along the european roads that you can almost feel the earth move as bugs and rodents alike make way for its coming. It is a very big deal. Over 20-million Civics have been sold world wide making it a big bringer of finances, and because of the hugely reliable, rev happy editions in the past, the model has built up quite a fan base. Initial figures suggest however that there are still some issues in need of a good iron. There will be 3-engines available, a 1.4 and 1.8-litre petrol engines followed up by a 2.2 i-DTEC diesel engine. The world is hoping that there will be an influx of exciting sport models s…
