  • Engine control lamp

    After that they washed my Smart. After that I drove about 1 KM wide. The engine check indicator light went on. The Motort started to jerk. No oil loss and also no cooling water loss. Engine dry from above. Workshop (Mercedes dealer) baffled. Where could the problem lie?

  • Spring broken

    When I bought my Smart in Nov. 2004 used in the SC, after 1,000 km a cracking took place while steering. A check proved that the spring on the front right was broken on the shock absorbers. This damage was repaired from the SC to Kulanz, but the repair took 1 1/2 weeks. I wonder now, what always lasts so long about the repairs.

  • ABS wreaths

    Moin Moin… I need your help here.. 5 weeks ago we bought a Smart Cdi Cabrio. Total class of dare. Now we have been to a smart dealer to have an inspection done, which has determined that the ABS wreaths have broken. Where we bought the car he says it’s all OK & he can’t read anything. It trits even if you are very slow below. What do you say??? continue until nothing goes on??? the reperature should cost good 800€ since d he wreaths are mounted on the truss & it will not be individually… For your help I am grateful… Greetings Lars

  • Smart sales numbers…

    Report The increasingly bad sales figures don’t really surprise… Simple quality at exclusive prices… – …any simple car comparison makes the car look bad at the latest in terms of costs. If the car were offered at the price that it is worth, it would probably sell better.

  • Smart car purchase, what do I have to pay attention to…

    Hello, I would like to buy a smart one. Year of construction from 2001-2005. Only I know about this car zero. I actually want a petrol engine with heater… because I only have 5 KM to work. What do I have to pay attention to when buying, max. km? Are there frequent problems? I heard/read more often that the engines can’t stand so much… is that correct? Rather a manual gearbox or semi-automatic? Maybe you can also think of some other tips. ank. Greetings

  • Cold heating in winter

    CDI Bj.07/01 Hello After I even attached cardboard in front of the cooler and it still remains ice cold, I might next want to isolate the water pipes that go from the back to the front (tip from the heater installer) because at the back directly on the engine the pipe gets very warm and therefore think that the heat is lost on the way forward.Perhaps someone has a photo of below where these pipes run,Or someone can tell me what a strength of insulation is dreary he would have to (diameter of the pipes)I would also like to know the length beforehand, otherwise the whole disguise must first be dismantled. Greeting from the Eifel Dieter
