Passing on/giving advice..

Using "pay heed to" makes it less than natural, whichever version you use.

If you "pass on" advice, it might suggest that someone else once gave you the same advice.

So its more natural to use pay attention instead of pay heed?

But what differs using give from using pass on to?

Yes, I find it more natural to say "listen to" or "pay attention to" than "pay heed to."

As I said above:
If you "pass on" advice, it might suggest that someone else once gave you the same advice.

I don't find anything wrong with "pay heed to" although this is somewhat more formal and might typically be reserved for strong warnings rather than just advice. Then again, we don't know what kind of advice you are giving or how emphatically you want them to listen.

Pay heed to / Give heed to / Give ear to all have this same meaning of fixating intently on what one is saying. You coul

Pay attention to the advice I am going to give you.

I completely agree.
Yo, listen up - very informal
Listen to what I'm about to say - informal to moderately formal
Pay heed to this advice - formal
