Hi Jazzers,

I have heard some of old-timers (otai) said that for Jazz, semi-synthetic 5w30 is the best. Salesman/technician will offer full synthetic of course because it is the most expensive.

Even if you check the official Honda Malaysia website in maintenance, the price for engine oil replicate the price of mineral engine oil.

So I assume for Jazz engine mineral type engine oil is sufficient enough. My question, is choosing semi synthetic over fully synthetic is the right choice? In terms of cost of course.

How can semi-syn be better than full syn.. at least where the quality of the oil is concerned..
But of cos if cost is a concern then of cos, can consider la but the best mineral oil is only recommended for 5k km which would mean more frequent changes..

anyone upgraded their stock tires?

time to change new shoes for my V spec. biggrin.gif

planning to upgrade the size on stock rims.

195/55R16?
195/50R16?
Or 205/50/R16? tongue.gif
Any recommendation guys?

Personally i think 185 abit narrow, slightly bumpy when driving at high speed.

Going lower profile is not going to get it better..
I'd suggest 195/55 but with a softer compound..

If that is ur first car, should buy Civic...more spacious......suitable for long distance than jazz...
Jazz normally meant as 2nd or spare  car for market/grocery trips....suitable for short distance travel ....

My wifeys GE jazz is good for town/urban use.. parking is easy.. Civic FC is bigger = more power ; urban parking is a tad harder but boleh la if you wanna use as city car too..
I guess its up to you..
