Hello can you call me butte the paint code of a Smart 450 fortwo Grandstyle (is similar to British racing green). Thank you

Hi guys, have a Smart 451 as a downtown car and winter tyres with DOT 08. The profiles are still available enough but last time I had to drive really slowly otherwise I always had wheelspin and when braking always had to intervene ABS. Did the tires become hard or do I have too much air pressure on them? How can I find out for myself? Do you really have to throw away tyres after 5 years? Greetings Gimix

Hello guys! I’m looking for the ABE/parts report for the Brabus Monoblock A (see photo below) in the dimension front axle 5.5J x 16 ET 30 for the tyres 175/50R16 rear axle 6.5J x 16 ET -1 for the tyres 205/45R16 Unfortunately, the previous search here as well as in the net was unsuccessful. Did any of you accidentally scan such a partial report and allow me to mail it? Would be great. Thank you in advance.

Good evening! I hope you can help me. I doubt slowly. For my “smurf” 😉 I have bought the Kenwood KDC-BT43U. In addition, I have ordered an aperture from the bay, which was delivered with an adapter. Now I have only now learned that a “Plug & Play” is unfortunately not possible. I have been looking for more than 1 hour, how to move the pins (and whether this is possible with the 2nd adapters at all or I have to get a new one). Unfortunately I have to the instructions of Möma did not help:-( I probably have two left hands for it. The adapter that came with the radio has only 4 cables on the right. The one from the aperture has 5. I upload some photos, maybe one of you can see something and help me.

hello, we are superior to buying a cheap second car for the city and have come across a build year 98/99 smart 3 cylinder with 54 ps and automatic. unfortunately I have no idea at all about smart and don’t know what to look for? have already found which with about 80000 km but there is usually something with motor damage. what is going on with the engines? would this be easy to repair? how durable is the automatic and what should you pay attention to? what can you do? still most of everything is broken? many thanks already

Hello, dear, a friend of mine is driving a Smart fortwo 0.6i Turbo (MC01) Coupe Bj 2001 No workshop could help her further without making any assumptions ….maybe YOU have an idea. She described the following problem: Smartie starts to make problems as soon as the temperature indicator shows 3 eggs. He hops briefly … then goes out. If you try to start it then the engine either does not start, or if it starts you can’t turn on a gear. As soon as it is cooled down again it starts again. Error message which it shows… in the middle where the gears are displayed 3 strokes between each other. Also on the right bottom a yellow indicator that does not run out anymore. Noise when I turn it on (if it is possible) is a glimmering or knocking …. I did not have any other abnormalities, otherwise he drove without problems. I would be very grateful about your help.

Hello together, can someone help me urgently what piece/adapter I need to get my 15 nut on the torque wrench? thanks a lot.

Hi guys, since it gets cold again outside, the gearbox only switches into the second gear when I get to the 35km/h. This is very annoying and the wear is also reinforced because the speed is very high just when the engine is cold. I always switch up by hand. Is this somehow harmful or can something else happen? The cat should get warm quickly with the method with the high speed, but does it really take much longer if I hold the speeds down? the 451 Bj. 2011 would be very grateful to you

Hello members, I have been having the following problem with the Smart for 2 weeks. – The engine control light is constantly running – The coolant temperature indicator rises to 120 degrees after approx. 3-5km driving at the current temperatures. – At the same time, the heating is without function. As soon as the temperature rises to 120 degrees, the signal flashes and the Smart runs worse. Shortly afterwards the display drops to 60 degrees and the heating starts to work. From this moment the temperature rises to 90 and stays According to a friend who owns a workshop, the following sensor is defective. “Refrigerant temperature sensor” In addition, I have an appointment with Mercedes on Wednesday to read out the error range. Do these symptoms (motor control light + funny heating or cooling behaviour) have to do with it? What could the problem be?
