Fortwo 451 Roof Damage
Clear Polycarbonate Roof Problems There is an inherent problem with all of the clear plastic roofs fitted to smarts. Most 451 coupe owners will notice that tiny cracks appear in the plastic. The cracks can't be felt as they are internal and although it's very rare,...
Fortwo Bike Rack – Aftermarket
Here is the Rack4Smart kit supplied plus an eyebolt that I used to improve the kit. Take the 2 parts of the A-frame... ...push them together and fit the bolt to secure the 2 sides. Take the bicycle arms, insert them into the A-frame and... ...tighten them in place...
Front Splitter Fitting
The standard front splitter on the smart is pretty understated and boring, not to mention unpainted.This ruins the front of the car and the textured plastic gets dirty very quickly.
Front Wheel Alignment
Front Wheel Alignment If the front of your car doesn't handle as well as it used to. Your front tyres are wearing in a strange way, or your steering wheel isn't straight when the car is going straight, your front wheel alignment is probably out. Ideally, I recommend...
Fuel Pressure Regulator FPR
The smart runs a 3.8 bar fuel pressure regulator, the injectors can handle more so lets up it a touch and see what happens by adding a Bosch 0280 160 575 4 bar FPR. Bought to our attention in August of 2006 by Christos Kolovos (CKA) on the Maniacs forum.

Fuse Taps
Fuse Taps Fuse taps are clever pieces of metal and plastic that can turn 1 fuse position on your fuse box into 2 separate fuse positions. They are a good generic way to separately power an additional circuit. Obviously I would never recommend these over the proper...
Fuse Types and Sizes
We all know that fuses have different ratings but on the smart they are also different sizes.
Gas Strut Removal
Remove the gas struts that hold the boot open on all smarts and the bonnet open on a Roadster.
Gear Angle Sensor Testing
This is the gearbox angle sensor. It is used to determine the position of the gear drum when the gear positions are being taught on the Star machine. In every day use, the car does not rely on this sensor to tell the gear position. It has 3 pins in the housing. These...

Gearbox Fluid Specs
I Really Don't Know Why But... There are some normal, intelligent smart owners out there who insist that you can use gear oil in transmissions that are designed and specified to be used with ATF. Apparently the manufacturer of the gear box don't know what's best....
Gearbox Removal
Why remove the gearbox? Maybe you want to change the clutch, maybe your gearbox is fucked.
