I went to honda dealer to test drive Jazz Petrol but they say only have Hybrid version. Tested the hybrid it was ok and silent and smooth.
So the SA let me test City to test the engine since jazz and city share the same engine. I found the engine noise to be much louder than the Hybrid version. Any idea if the Jazz Petrol radio/cd sound system is ok? Does it sound cheap? |

QUOTE(farghmee @ Nov 25 2013, 11:28 AM) peringgit motor jln klang lama only jazzhyb for test drive. You tested jazz petrol before?& i can live with the noise of jazzhyb +- like 1stgen myvi. hopefully jazzpet doesn't vary much with jazzhyb.  Reason is because the engine is much nearer to the cabin in the jazz compared to city. So i believe jazz will be even noisier if compared to city. Above 3k rpm in the honda city i already find the engine to be buzzy. God knows how it will be when vtec kicked in the jazz  still deciding between going for better design(jazz) or going for better driving experience(almera/vios/polosedan)  |

QUOTE(farghmee @ Nov 25 2013, 01:34 PM) nope, no TD jazzpet since no unit available. preve not so fuel economically because i'm doing 80% city all the time valid reasoning. that's why i hope it would as quiet as myvi. my expectation isn't big. i only interested in polosedan, for better driving. i'm haven't td polosedan yet. but if u r going for a sedan, try preve cfe. it's surprisingly quiter than jazzpet. & if hiway travel is my concern, preve cfe anytime..or perhaps suprima s. maybe later...haha  |

Jazz CKD service interval is 5000km/3mths. If use fully syn does it extend to 10000km/6mths?

QUOTE(croomaniac @ Jan 28 2014, 03:33 PM) [SA6YEuro] I'm gonna test on your discovered issues definitely.. About the air-cond button, the light (i think not LED) beneath it should made the button a little heat up over time.. May i know what's with the alarm? Sound cheap or what?But all and all, my comments so far are: [1] There is no 110 kmh mark on the speedometer. So you'll have to agak-agak the needle.. [2] The alarm. Oh.. (I think this may be because of the 'cost reduction?') [3] The sound of the horn. Its just too 'soft' (I think this may be because of the 'cost reduction?') [4] The rear lights (3 tier); the bottom part is solely for decoration only. (I think this may be because of the 'cost reduction?') Apart from that I'm all ok. Though I'd like to change the rims and tires so that it'll perform better.  Among all of them, the plus that i'd like to highlight: [1] Its equipped with VSC [2] Ultraseats [3] Rear legroom And the main reason why i choose this car against Vios (yes, I'll have to admit that I drilled down to this 2 cars after months of surveys and arguments) is the Ultraseats.. Yupp.. Honda has made me choose the car based on this X-Factor.. which proved decisive enough against the counterpart..  |

QUOTE(SA6YEuro @ Jan 28 2014, 02:40 PM) Unfortunately no. I too have asked this before. Even if full syn, interval is still 5k or 3mths. Their excuse is our engine is not the latest. Only applicable to new models, not mistaken new civic. Yeah that's my main concern too. My usage is pretty low about 5k in 6months. I dont want to visit SC 4 times a year I don't like visiting SC too frequently that's why I asked. I don't mind paying more twice a year rather than pay them 4 times a year. Wasting time   |
