Hello guys, I want to get a smart at the end of 2024, I drive in moment 2 BMW’s (E36 323ti Compact and E39 525i Touring) which should also remain in my possession, but need for my wife a small car and the smart is suitable. However, since I have no idea about the smart at all, I want to inform myself before what are the weak points on the smart. But first of all my ideas: He has to be automatic and should definitely have a climate, the rest would be no matter. My ideas would be so Bj 2000 – 2005 or 6 Where are the weak points on the smart and what do I have to pay attention to? Furthermore, where are the differences in Moldel care, i.e. VFL and FL? I hope you can help me and thank me now. LG Stephan

Hello dear motor-talker, I know that there are already similar topics in the forum. Unfortunately, I didn’t really find out between the discussions about a concrete solution. We would like to install a TrackPilot tracking module with driver identification (magnet key) and private driving function in our Smart fortwo coupé (bj 2014). I have the following questions for this: 1. The module has a quick mounting cable set with fuse over which you can take a permanent plus directly from the fuse box. Which existing safety place or possibly a reserve place with permanent plus can I use in the fuse box? 2. I would like to install the tilt switch for the private ride and the receiver for the magnetic key in the glove compartment. How elaborate – if at all possible – is the dismantling of the standard glove compartment? Which covers (side cladding, footroom, etc.) have to be removed with this?

Hello dear community, I unfortunately had to find out last Friday that someone has scratched my Smart 451 at the driver’s door and rear window. (I have only scratched the car myself for about a month, which is why it is all the more annoying. -.-) The door is completely damaged, as can be seen on the picture. The rear window is scratched. My question would be, has someone had experiences with what will cost me all the fun to repair or repaint everything? Must be painted? And since I drive a convertible I also asked myself, can one replace the rear window individually, or even the complete cover be replaced? I have unfortunately not yet had any experience with it, and fear of the repair costs a whole lot. Can one of you tell me about the costs for repairing the door as well as the rear window will come to me? I have already received a message against unknown, the handling policeman had already estimated the damage to be at 2500 euros, but I would still like to know if I am happy about this!

So after 15 minutes drive, the gear jumps to 0, the speedometer also falls to 0. In addition, the ABS, handbrake and ESP lights jump on.. The car still continues until you put the gear lever on N or R, then the gear jumps to 0 and the car is like in idle and the above lights jump on. Actuator is apparently fine. Have often heard of sensor problem with smarts just don’t know which sensor it can lie on in our case. Stutzig makes me the error

Hello, together, because of a new job (about 30 km easy) I need a car. Since I haven’t driven for a long time, it should be small and clear. Now a friend offered me his smart and I think all the time, whether yes or no. I have no idea of cars. The Smart for two caprio: EZ 2009 petrol 8x tyres air conditioning Start and stop Kilometer 89,000 TÜV/AU January 17 checkbook maintained from 1st hand Various things were done: brakes changed V-belts etc. Price: 4800 He is still there, he says. I haven’t seen him yet. Next week he wants me to have a test drive. What do you say? Top or flop?

I’m glad I sold dreck’s Smart. Last dreck’s piss box. I recommend you all buy real cars.

Hello community. I am interested in a Smart BJ 2005 convertible with ca110,000 km of mileage. How are the durability of the engines? The first models often have problems with engine damage. The gasoline engines also contract long distance on the motorway (65km)

Hello, I want to make myself clear here whether someone has the same problem (only found it once here in the forum). I have the new Smart (model year 2010) for three weeks and have now about 750km down. First two weeks everything ran perfectly, after that however, the car began to vibrate more and more when it is warm. Listens or fills up then, as if I was speeding up all the time low-touring (with short driving time only easy to take, but always gets stronger). If he stood overnight, however, sounds the first 5 min. drive everything as I picked him up. Did now bring him to Smart and get the statement, that would be normal with this model and would come from the gearbox. That would be so with everyone. (???) So, now to all, who also have the 84ps Smart, you really have this problem and do not bother you at all??? Especially when collecting everything perfectly ran???????
