Another Jazz Hybrid owner
Hi Charles...welcome to the Club Glad you are happy with your new Honda As you say, there is a vast variety of clever functions throughout the vehicle. Some of which is selectable and others are passive but either way it definitely enhances safety and driver convenience. Good to have you onboard!

Legend 2006 Voice Recognition not working
I have had this problem in the past and had to adapt my speech (talking slower) to see if that made any difference....it did and also then accepted some choice words which also worked 🙂

Honda Jazz 2003 automatic gearbox transmission problem
How many sensors did they have listed for it and can they be interchanged (if the same part number) so you can try the other sensors if faulty

Honda FRV front cup holder, how to remove.
I think there is a post in the forums that covered this some time ago. Try a search (top right corner of screen) and see what's there

Fan belt drive noise
Sounds like the belt is shredding as either the alternator or the air con compressor are seized. You will need to remove the belt and see which pulley is not rotating.

Help! Front Passenger door not opening!
May be the only option as done it in the past as long as you have a replacement one to hand

Air con compressor
Hi Jeff....welcome to the Club I would probably go from the part number and see which others share the same compressor. Find the number and put it in an eBay search and hopefully should list other models with this pump fitted

Barn 'Find' - but not charging
Hi Mark.....welcome to the Club Chances are it may be the belt slipping or broken. Also, when I have stored up cars over the years then the alternator can seize which is evident by the belt slipping and burning smell. Worth seeing it the belt is in good condition then running the engine to see if the alternator pulley is rotating then go from there with electrical checks on the alternator connections

Screen wash smell
Check the hoses going to the washer jets and it should leave a trace (stain) on the engine where it is dripping

Honda crv 1.6.160km 9 peed automatic transmission deepstick location.
Hi....welcome to the Forum A lot of modern automatic transmissions are sealed and can only be drained and then refilled at most. If it is not faulty or leaking then it should be fine and not worth worrying about until it is due for routine maintenance

Fuel tank is smaller than manual seeing
Hi....welcome to the Club That's a tough one as the only way you would really know how much is in the tank is to run it out completely and then refill it to gauge the quantity. I would imagine it does have in the region of 13 to 15 litres but the range is only really an estimate based on driving styles and conditions.

Advice requested on repairs to air conditioning system.
Hi Ian......welcome to the Club It sounds like the air con system is not working and its just running off the standard heater system. There is an issue with the air con relay which can be sourced from eBay at little cost (Denso relay). You then have to reset the air con system .... plenty of info on YouTube how to do this and if it has triggered the engine management warning lamp then this will need to be reset Let us know how you get on with it

CRV high pressure power steering hose
Hi Kelly....welcome to the Forums You should be able to source a company in your local area that can repair or make a new one at very little cost. These companies usually make hydraulic pipes and hoses for diggers and trucks but can replicate your one if you take it in with you. Let us know how you get on with it

Paint reference number
It's usually in the door pillar area or if not then should be on a card that was supplied with the car originally

Is it crazy to use 2020 CRV EX AWD to tow a bass boat.
Hi....welcome to the Forums Haven't had any experience towing with an Automatic CR-V but I would say it is a case of going at a slower pace and not relying on the engine for braking so much (which would load the transmission)....then it should be okay without any mods.

Now you're talking my kind of language! Humber Sceptre and Opel Monza....superb cars to own in the day 🙂

Engine Management Light Following Replacement Cat....
Hi David.....it could be an air leak caused by a perforation or leak in the gasket or flange area. This would cause the Oxygen sensor to read high oxygen content and flag an error. Check there is no leak in the exhaust and then check Oxygen sensors for correct operation

Old Kels intro and 2013 Accord grill question
Had the Rover 220 Coupe Turbo which was Rover's equivalent to the Integra....great car and really rapid for a 2.0 litre. It does make you wonder where the old motors in one's life disappear off to and totally regret selling some of them 😞

Hello from Tipton!

Honda CRZ Ride Quality
You could always increase the tyre profile (e.g. a larger profile height) which will provide more 'cushioning' over bumpy surfaces. Unless you want to corner fast then the handling will still be acceptable but much more smoother ride. I have done the same thing on my BMW Z3 and so much more pleasant to drive nowadays 🙂
