Hello everyone here, the diesel consumption of my 54hp CDI fluctuates very strongly. There is everything from 3.3 l to 6.5 l. Only ARAL is refueled at always the same gas station. When I picked him up last November and drove 200 km home (110 km/h-120 km/h) he used 6.5 l to 100 km. At that time he was not in good condition. I think he had stood long or much short distance with it. The diesel was very loud and he was rather lame. Meanwhile, 8tkm later, much has been renewed and it runs very well, overtaking trucks on the highway also goes uphill without any problems. On my way of work. 25km easy distance 90% motorway and around 90 km/h speed he consumes in winter, -5°C to 0°C 5.5 liters and it takes 15 km until it is halfway warm in the car. In summer it is more 3.5 to 4 liters to 100 km and the heating is right after 5 km on the bollard. Is that so normal or there is something I could check out for 2011 The Pure P.P.

Hello. The smart from the daughter had suddenly made problems yesterday. For some this is probably a known error 3 bars were to be seen on the display. Does not get a gear in. The car starts without any problems only as said, does not put a gear in. Have uploaded a video. At the beginning it is off and the gears are inserted, as you see is movement available and on the display all is displayed correctly. But as soon as you turn on the car and try to put the first gear in, does not happen, except a few noises when he tries to put the gear in. On the video this is to be seen at the end like the stick of the actuator “triggered”( from 0.24 min). Does not another white someone else find a remedy ?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qE-Cfl6WPQ

Moin, I’ve bought a 451 mhd coupe from 2010 on the WE. I was thrilled and then looked at the documents at home. And there I saw, that the first delivery was probably in Belgium. The first two stamps in the service booklet came from Smart Belgium. After that the first inspection at 3500 km Smart Aachen made. So it is probably a reimport. The seller had not mentioned that. but well, I could have looked at the service booklet also exactly. My question now to you, have reimports any disadvantages? One reads in sales ads time and again the note: no reimport. So does it seem to be a positive sales argument? Greeting, Stefan

Sooo.. the first weekend with my new Smart 451, Bj 10/2010 61PS MHD in the Pure equipment is around. Saturday he was converted to Softouch, and since then I really have a lot of fun with him. My questions now: According to the Smart Workshop everything is technically top, with his 86.900km he is in a very good maintained condition. Optically he has unfortunately 1-2 flaws but for that it fits with the price. 1. Question even if the workshop told me the steering is top, he pulls above all on the highway from about 100km clearly to the right when the steering wheel is standing. Is it on the road? 2. Did the Smart likes to take away from Spurrillen etc. Generally I have the feeling that he is a bit rume on the highway, but I have also read about it that it is the low weight and wheelbase. Or should I rather let a wheel measure it? 2. Does this make the Softouch automatic with the time to adjust to my driving style very nicely, but I’ve always started with 4 gear automatics. Here he is quick to get used for the ride.

Hello dear community, I absolutely need your swarm knowledge / experience. It is a Smart For Two, built in 2005, gasoline with 45KW, (981 / 001), MC01, with air conditioning The following story (in short form). My starter was demonstrably defective. So I commissioned a good friend to replace the starter. So because the starter was so tight he did not get it and handed this matter over to a car workshop of his trust. The whole prework (stock bar, fenders dismantle, parts of the engine etc.) he had already done before. So the workshop should only replace the starter. In good faith that this did not cost the world then he caused it there. The end of the song was that only the exchange and a new starter cost 78€! The assembly (stough rod, etc.) should have done again my good friend. In good faith that this did not cost the world a lot of VAT. The end of the song was that only the exchange and a new starter cost 78€! The assembly (stough, etc.) should not have been justified for this reason to make this good or to make it completely justified.

Hello, I know that there are some topics already. However, in this case it is a different starting point. It is a Smart 451 with the “old” dashboard. see link:http://data.motor-talk.de/…/smart-armaturenbrett.jpg I have an original Smart Radio Highline Navi but this is only REIN the Navi (see picture in the appendix) without the round aperture. Now it would have to be possible to upgrade the Navi? I would then only order the DoubleDIN mounting kit. see link:http://www.ebay.de/…/151306026605?_trksid=p2054897.l4275 The Navi no longer differs from the dimensions to a retrofit DoubleDIN Navi like e.g.Alpine, JVC…. or is this NOT true???

Moin, on Friday my friend with our Smart 451 (52kW, approx. 130,000 Km, year 07) stayed there. The engine didn’t start anymore. So I towed home and read out errors with Texa. Error codes: ABS/ESP -> C1323 CAN communication with transmission control automatic transmission -> P1800 record transmission control unit Since I had the actuator in my suspicion (some years ago because of switching problems times cleaned and readjusted or caviared), I tried to control it via the software – no reaction. Then I dismantled it once and opened it. Result was – drive shaft (this small screw, which reaches into the plastic gear) is sheared off by the electric motor. No question, the actuator must be new. My question is now, I can check the clutch (possibly blocked, mech. damaged) so that the new actuator is not destroyed directly because of overloading. Have already tried to push a 1/2 inch extension into the pan, where the actuator is not able to separate significantly from the clutch.

Hello, my girlfriend needs a little town flicker. She totally lost herself in the smart, so I’ll inform myself here for her 🙂 My girlfriend is in training and has 2 weeks of work and 2 weeks of school. She drives every 2 weeks 2-4x daily 20km (1 times the distance). At the same time 70-100km/h around 95%. The other 2 weeks 2x daily about 10km at 100% city. Now I wonder to what extent I should grab a diesel here. In the gulf I know it, that a TDI is actually quite little designed for short distance (<20km) (so it will probably be with every diesel). Therefore the question to the speczzies, whether you should pay a diesel or a petroler. Furthermore, I ask you what is to keep up with the offers for the 2,500 EUR - 3,000 EUR. Much more he should not cost. And still the question, what we should pay attention to when buying in general. I thank you for it! Greetings And what for God's sake with the engines? Look at the offers only "motor damage", etc.

Hello I’m looking for a radio with Bluetooh and DAB+ for my 2007 smart 451 with Android that could run directly Youtube. the most important thing is that it is installed without additional frames in the mounting panel, I don’t want a frame for it. Find the radio mounting panel already ugly enough. and the lighting of the keys USW. should fit the car. would also like to have a rotary button for the loudness. is there no possibility to stream aps wirelessly to the display? is there anything?
