451 smart fortwo

I have 50,000 miles on my passion. The ventilating fan has not worked properly for about 30,000 miles. No warranty coverage. They want $350 plus labor to replace it. Smart knows of the problem as the dealer told me to "Kick" it to get it to run intermitently! Now it wont go at all. Anyone else had the problem? What's a better solution?

Replace it. is it worth the aggravation not to? Pick up your phone and call around to local parts stores for pricing to compare if you want. I know we're not all made of money but things do happen. I personally would much rather enjoy my drive than be upset about broken things. you might want to write to the folks at http://www.evilution.co.uk They might have a how to so that you can go at the work yourself. Good Luck.

Find out who is doing this to us, please, and tell the rest of us so we can boycott whatever the ba$tard is $elling. Funny, neither of my 1200cc Suzuki Bandits get more than a tad over 51 mpg (this is the newer 1255cc model). I'd LOVE to own the n…

My Smart transmission problem just happened again! This time I started up the car, shifted into Reverse, no power, just as if it was in neutral. Tried turning it off, letting it "reset". Started up again. Same result. Tried Drive: also no power. Tri…

Why do diesels have "much higher maintenance requirements"? The biggest problem with diesels seems to be fuel pump failures, something that could be fixed with a bit of R & D. Also, show me a gas engine that lasts as long as a typical diesel engine.…

VERY scary, Andrew ! SF Smart Car completely checked out my transmission and couldn't find any way to explain my problem. They suggested that perhaps I had shifted from Drive to Reverse too fast. It's hard to remember, so I can't be sure. Now I'm be…
