Guys, any recommendation for jazz hybrid 2013 absorber?

Hey guys, how often have you guys had to change the lead acid battery?

3-4 years

Wow I guess shouldn't have to worry about my lead acid battery yet then, since its only 15 months old and lest service the SC said the battery was still 100%.
Thank you for the reply.

My Jazz Hybrid 2012 (CBU) is still running on it's 2nd battery. 3++ years old already. Maybe due for new one in coming months. I can see the dimming of headlight when I switch on the car. When the engine starts, the headlight brightens. Tell tale of weaken 12v lead acid battery.

The lead acid battery should last long because it never been used to crank the engine, to start the engine, IMA hybrid motor will do the cranking instead. Basically, the 12v lead acid never been used to crank. Longer life span.

I see. I drive the 2017 City Hybrid. Driven says the engine is cranked by the 12V battery instead of the lithium battery. Need to check with my SA then. Thanks again.

Edit: A fellow City Hybrid says the lead acid battery is charged the right way so I shouldn't need to worry. By that I think he means the lithium battery drip charges the lead acid I guess.

12v battery is solely for traditional car's electrical circuitry. Headlight, radio, wiper, etc. The normal stuffs.

The lithium battery is for assisting the petrol engine and sometime for pure EV drive (if the condition is right).

Lithium battery -> IMA -> motor. A small portion of the power from this battery / IMA motor is being used to recharge the 12v battery. This is because Jazz hybrid do not have traditional alternator.

The engine do have traditional starter motor, but only will be used IF IMA system fails. Else all cranking will be done by the hybrid motor. That's why when you crank the engine, there's no traditional typical cranking sound can be heard.

Hi, all..
I plan to order/purchase used sparepart from japan online (Be Forward). Anyone have any experience or heard about this website?

Plan to purchase this:
https://autoparts.beforward.jp/detail/Trans...les/PA04680838/

Already googled it. cannot find this used part in malaysia. Another option is purchase new at SC but will cost a bomb😭

Or
If anyone can recommend any kedai potong that have used jazz hybrid sparepart. Highly appreciated
Thank you in advance.

the site item is kereta potong japan edition.
i think can order and send direct ..

if kereta potong m'sia edition might need to buy whole set
yours faulty? symptom?

vsa/abs warning light up...when this happens auto-stop will stop functioning.
this problem long time already (more than 6 months) but only last month SC confirmed it due to abs/vsa actuator malfunction (part #57110-TF2-Q02)

take a long time to confirmed bcoz when sent for service & diagnostic no warning light

the warning light will reset once the engine turn-off
then if lucky the whole journey okay if not just out from parking already, got warning light

How much does it cost?

SC quoted me RM7K for part, labour & brake fluid
