Hello dear SMARTis So first of all to my smart: Fortwo, 60PS petrol – Passion BJ 07/2004 70000 km/h Checkbook maintained if anything is important please ask, am the total car noob , especially I have the smart only 1 week The problem: Suddenly on the highway after which I already kicked it arg ( almost to the red area of the rev indicator ) happens suddenly the following: Engine light goes on and power loss of the engine. Error read out: Diagnosis: Ignition problems sporadically Cylinder 2 Reperature: Ignition plugs change, compression impeccable, car runs again 1a ! ABER: The Autowerkstadt ( not a smart partner ) my spark plug looks questionable, another borderline – both from cylinder 2… and the spark plugs were even wilted 5000km ago, he would have seen something like this already with a smart engine which was then full in the ass! Here is a photo of the spark plugs : Is each the “good”, the “thinkable” and a “normal spark plug” would somehow be used for me.

Hello, with the Smart (Smart smart fortwo coupe pure micro hybrid drive, 999 cc / 61 hp) which I want to buy, the yellow engine control lights up and starts to flash after a certain time. The dealer says that head gasket is defective. White smoke or stinking exhaust gases are not available. Also no cooling water drops in the oil. Oil is very good. Also no smell in the cooling water. Further there is the uncertainty whether the cylinder treads have a damage. Since I want to buy the Smart first, I can of course not say anything what happened with the car before. I am a trained engine builder and would like to direct the Smart. Would be nice if the repair went WITHOUT engine expansion. First and most important question: is the head gasket change possible WITHOUT engine expansion? Thank you!

Yesterday, when I drove my girlfriend to work around 1 p.m., the car was still running quite normal. But on the way back, I noticed something strange: the brightness of the radio changed by itself between bright and dark lighting, in a rhythm that I usually only know, because when I turn off the headlights or the brightness of the radio adapts. At home, I first turned off the car in front of the front door and wanted to leave again later. But when I returned after about 1.5 hours, the car didn’t jump any more. A look at the dashboard showed me that the left turn signal flashed by itself, although I hadn’t activated it. I then looked at various forum entries and videos regarding the problem that the smart didn’t start. There, among other things, possible causes such as starter, alternator, cable breakage or cable shoe were discussed. However, these explanations did not take into account the additional problem of crazy electronics.https://youtu.be/Vr6ZJWDXi-8 Petrolter 698 cm3 37kW BJ 05/2003
