Smart 2025: All the upcoming models

That's what I experienced when the coolant level was low, or when air got in the system.

It's a long shot but..... I would check the coolant level.

After 25 years, the Smart ForTwo will no longer be produced - Telegrafi - Telegrafi

I had an interesting Saturday. I was the support person for''Wild''who wanted to replace the clutch on his 451 that has clocked 380,000kms. I provided the heated shop, the hoist, and a second set of hands when needed. It was not necessary to drop the engine. The oem guidelines were followed and the entire job took 7 hours. Not a job for the faint of heart but it is doable. Most of my day was working on a 2001 gas powered 450 with only 45,000kms. It's a pure so I added a clock/ tach and got the radio working. It was in storage for 20 years so is in very good condition.

Check those reluctor rings real close, even a small crack will cause those lights to come on.

I believe that high intake temperatures caused am engine failure in one of the smart cars I owned at 190,000 kms. My intercooler scoop was gone and the i/c fan didn't work - I chose to ignore that. Turned out the valve lifters had failed causing a loss of compression. An expensive lesson.

I would try that myself, but keep the trips short.

Is your intercooler fan working? Do you have an intercooler scoop?

Evilution has a list of the bulbs.

Ya, bleeding an old Mercedes or Toyota diesel was tricky too!
