The multiple award-winning Honda Jazz has clocked up sales of 2 million worldwide and well over 100,000 in the UK since its introduction in 2002. The car is sought-after and good second-hand examples sell quickly, as the Haynes workshop team found out when they set out to buy one!
The advice from Top Gear on buying used is: Make sure early examples have a full service history because Honda servicing is pricey. The publication of the new Haynes Honda Jazz Manual is in tune with this sentiment because it offers owners the opportunity to reduce or avoid altogether expensive visits to garages.
Rightly, Haynes manuals have an enviable reputation worldwide for precise, extensively illustrated instructions to enable owners to undertake everything from simple tasks to major overhauls - and avoid costly garage bills.
As with all Haynes manuals, the new Haynes Honda Jazz Manual was written and illustrated following the complete stripdown and re-assembly of a car. It covers the Honda Jazz 1.2 and 1.4 litre petrol models sold in the UK from 2002 to date. A new version of the Jazz is expected in the autumn.
There are sections on daily, weekly and routine maintenance plus instructions for straightforward jobs such as wiper blade replacement. Also included is advice on preparing for the MOT test, fault-finding charts and useful guidance for driving economically.
For more ambitious home mechanics, major overhauls to the engine, suspension and brakes have full instructions, illustrations, details of any special tools required and a rating for their complexity.
As with all Haynes Manuals, there are sections on:
- Maintenance - simple weekly checks to keep you on the road
- Servicing - complete, fully illustrated step-by-step guides
- Fault-finding - information helping you to pinpoint specific problems easily
- Brakes - safety checks and repairs for the home mechanic
- Haynes Tips - valuable short cuts to make many tasks easier
