Hello, I have converted my smart 42 year 09/2003, without additional parts to softouch (automatic)! The gas pedal with kick-down function and the switching backdrop with automatic function are not needed to drive the touring gear also optionally with or without automatic! Only the software from the smart transmitter and a button is needed! Costs for the conversion 150 Euro for software + 1,50 for pushbuttons and cables.

Unfortunately I haven’t found a suitable thread yet. Since I have to change the front axle with discs, I would be interested in what experiences you have had. Is it worth the extra charge for the EBC Black Dash with Red Stuff coverings or what good alternatives for example Brembo still exist?

Hello together, I’m new here and unfortunately with my Smarti the problem that it sounds like a puffed-up Trabbi. In other words, the exhaust / tail muffler has a high leak to the lamda probe (Riss). It has been known already, but only held for a whole week. Since the exhaust with Smart crammed about 750,- € costs, the question arises to me how and if you get to it cheaper. Under the part no. A4514901381 in combination with manufacturer’s key etc. is given. There are also significantly cheaper versions on the net, but they all look strangely different. Does anyone have a tip or experience on this?

Hello, play with the thought of buying a smart. Aspiration is: Automatic or partial automatic air conditioning cheap in consumption/tax/insurance would need this weekday for 100 km per day. Grade in the small car sector automatic is very rare to find. That’s why I came to a smart. At the moment I drive a BMW F11 (yes, the switch to a smart is then quite big…) but this would get the woman since this has daily not such a long distance. I don’t want to scrub on the F11 every day these miles on it. Or does someone have another alternative where I could take a look. If Smart I would like the convertible. Which miles would still be reasonable with this daily load?

Moin, I have a little problem and I hope you can help me. I drive a Smart Fortwo 1.0 84 HP petrol. The vehicle had in the past often displayed the three beams. Then a gearbox reset was made, also worked, but unfortunately only a few weeks. After that we replaced the actuator, went about 6-10 months good. After that we replaced the clutch, because it was already worn out. Now after assembly, three T later, again three beams, I gear reset and it runs again, several weeks went on like this. But now nothing can go on, the vehicle can no longer start, the starter doesn’t turn either, gear position is on N. Already wire harness transmission (with measurements ), brake light switch has been changed, battery new, ABS-SG contacts checked, generally mass connections checked, but unfortunately nothing can be done anymore… Maybe you can give me a hint, what I next time.

Hello together need a little help Was today with my Smart 451 BJ 2008, 58000 km run in the SC, because my Smart loses power at 130 km/h and goes into the emergency run (runs then only 100 km/h) the vehicle is then shut down and pulled keys, it has full power again. The SC has read out the error memory and error code P0105 came out, according to Smart Center is the turbocharger defective, but I can not imagine. Did my little one go back home lt and hope someone can help me without which I have to pay 1100 euros to the smart center.

Hello smart driver, this question refers to a Fortwo, year 2003, 698ccm, gasoline with 61hp. It is about the oil consumption and the following typical engine damage. How long can the engine and turbo hold, if you pay attention to the following known points: – only full synthetic oil, best 0w40 – oil level at max 2/3 max – in cold condition only max 3000 1/min – TLE renewed with each 2nd oil change (do I still have something important forgotten?) Has anyone here experience? Background is, my Smart currently has 83000km, I’ve been driving it for 40000km and pay attention to the above points, the oil consumption is almost 0. (exact: 0.7l to 15000km) Can the Smarti hold 120000 or 150000km without getting the typical engine damage? Looking forward to your opinion 🙂 A.

Hello together, I noticed that my ForFour oil is losing. I just don’t know where it went? Under the car there are no oil stains/tracks to be seen. I was out of town and suddenly there’s a funny noise and knatters to give the gas.Then there’s an oil lamp.At the oil level I noticed that the car doesn’t have any oil at all. I bought oil at the tank and filled it up. This morning I thought I’d check if the oil is still there.What should I say, it w There’s nothing left.Once again completely empty.But there’s no oil under the car to see.I can’t see anything in the engine compartment either.Does anyone have an idea what that could be?The problem with this is that I can’t go to the workshop before Monday,because important appointments are due and I really depend on the car.
