  1. Had my little 2006 Blue Passion "CMDLET" in Storage for the last while (no space, big monster 2006 Suburban ate the driveway space and 2nd Smart in Garage) Went to start after charging the battery. Kicked about like a Bronco and similar to running on 1 cylinder. I used many "Incantations" at this point until I went online and the FIRST hit was of course "Club Smart Car" REPEATLEDLY the phrase "Alternator Stuck" came up over and over and over... Ok... Please .... please ... PLEASE let it be this Pop off the liner on Passenger rear, loosen the 15mm bolt, grab one pry bar to move said alternator 22mm socket on alternator.... 5 minutes of wiggle, squeak and satisfaction it's now moving. One turn.... and *VOOM!* running immediately! Thank you Club Smart Car for being that resource... Next on my list for the summer, replace the muffler with a Stock one (I need this car to stop sounding like a race car) and finally swap in a Clean EGR. Woohoo!
  2. Hi there! This will be my first winter with my 2005 diesel smart car. It's been extremely cold these past few days and my car has not been able to start. I was told that leaving it plugged in for an hour in the morning before work using the block heater would help. I got the car used and unfortunately I don't really know much about cars although I'm eager to learn. There's what I'm assuming is the converter on the left front of the car, I was told the block heater was sold separately and directly from Mercedes-Benz. If anyone could provide some insight on this (ie. pictures of what either would look like?) or provide feedback on how they keep their cars going in the winter it would be much appreciated!! Audrey
  3. Set of winter rims with tires, used for 2 seasons, some very minor rust on rims $250. Located in Aurora, ON.
  4. I have a set of barely used ContiWinterContact tires, approx 500km on them before my Turbo died last winter. Mounted on an old set of Smart Fortwo winter rims. TS760 front tires are 145/65R15 (see Canadian Tire link below) TS800 rear tires are 175/55R15 (see link below) http://tires.canadiantire.ca/en/tires/winter-tires/product/0080474P/continental-contiwintercontact-ts760/2083489/ http://tires.canadiantire.ca/en/tires/winter-tires/product/0080476P/continental-contiwintercontact-ts800/0080476/ I'm asking $250 and live in the Ottawa area near Winchester, ON. Thanks!
  5. Hello, I'm looking for a complete set of rims mounted with winter tires. The vehicle is a 2005 Smart ForTwo cdi. Canadians: We're located in Rochester, NY USA. It's 3 hours from Toronto. We'd be willing to meet near the border or we could potentially drive into Ontario to get the wheels. Please drop me an email or send a PM if you have a set! Many thanks!

  6. So Noah from Markham MB can sell us the OEM winter rubber floor liners for $111.82 + tax provided we get a total of 10 (pairs) or more. It's 10% off their normal price and it's the best price I've seen in Canada so far. Other dealers like Victoria Star Motors in Kitchener sell the same OEM liners for $155.00. They are cheaper yet in the UK, but no one selling them will ship to Canada. These liner are similar, if not identical to the Weathertech DigitalFit liners. If you're interested add yourself to the list. Maybe if we can hit 20 we can negotiate an even better price 1 Marc Hanna 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
