  1. How old is the battery? Do you have a voltage meter to see if it is over 12.5 v dc?
  2. Silver Passion 2005 CDi on the way to work - Dougal Ave Windsor.Talked with the gentleman, asked if there was any local user groups/club told him about this place and the nearest user group would be London. Is there any interested members in the Windsor area?
  3. Only one today, normally see 2 on way home.
  4. Nothing special just the full wash/claybar/wax treatment. Then of course a nice 200km run to Point Pelee park to get it dirty.Got to ready for the summer.
  5. The CDi was the reason I sought out the 2006/7 Smart I am driving now. If there will not be another then I will have to reconsider the next purchase. Like the diesel engine and think it is a better model than electric.Will of course keep HalfByte as long as possible on the road.
  6. Will purchase another Smart - as long as it is diesel.
  7. Do not think the change in light levels will be noticed by the driver behind. Distraction will cause that http://clubsmartcar.com/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif Watched someone (behind a Jeep SUV) merge into traffic last night - notice I said behind? The lead vehicle was pushed a good 2 lengths into the right lane of traffic. Lucky that no one was hurt. Guess the second driver did not see the lead vehicle had not left the STOP sign to merge. At least no injury (except to both vehicles).
  8. Last six of VIN 302754
  9. First thought - Storm TrooperGuess the StarWars DVD's should be put away.
  10. It is a Pulse, from reading the tag by the mirrors.Has only a few options, which is good thing for me. Need to get under to see if there is a block heater or not. There is the jack in front for the heater (lower driverside of front bumper with dirt cap), do not know if the option was installed or not.The one thing I am trying to figure out (not a bad thing) seems the Driver side has a heated seat. The 'problem' is there is no dash button. How the heck do I disable for the summer?
  11. Have the 2006 CDi and will be keeping it until the next diesel is available (not the first batch of course). Then I will consider purchase of a 'backup' vehicle.Sold a 2001 Volvo S40 in late Oct for 1/10th what I paid for it. Was in excellent condition, body was like new and running well (if you think 10l/100KM city is good). Got tired of the dealer (had a problem beginning of the year and had to tell the mechanic what to swapout in order to fix it).Try to keep vehicles 8-10 years so auto companies do not like me.
  12. First day - out enjoying the ride. Got to get some snow tires soon.Manual mode is much easier than I would have thought, the car is training the new driver.
  13. Went out shopping for a vehicle, saw the Pulse, sat inside then of course took it for a spin. Now I am a proud owner of a 2006 Pulse Dark Blue with very little km's!Did a happy dance. Can not wait until I get to pickup on Saturday - can not pickup due to work hours.
