Premium Mod Towing A 453 Fortwo & Forfour453 Fortwo/Forfour

Warning Mercedes UK state that the 453 can't be towed more than 30 miles at 30mph. This is the same shit they've been spouting for 20 years. So far I have heard of 2 people who have dragged towed an auto 453 and then discovered massive transmission oil leaks under the...

Normal Mod Towing Eye Thread450 Fortwo451 Fortwo452 Roadster

Not every page has to have 9000 words. (sometimes I can't be bothered). Towing Eye Thread ACME 5/8" 8 Teeth Per Inch (TPI) Towing Eye Adapter Acme threaded bolts are as rare as rocking horse shit. Luckily, SmartMods have created an adapter to change it to M12x1.75mm...

Normal Mod Towing Legality450 Fortwo451 ED451 Fortwo452 Roadster453 EQ453 Fortwo/Forfour

Towing Legality It must be mentioned that this particular tow bar is for "off-road use only". The smart 450, 451, 452 Roadster and 453 weren't homologated to tow anything so can't legally tow. I'll say it again. It is not legal to tow in any country that the smart was...

Premium Mod Turbo Removal 450 Fortwo 700cc450 Fortwo452 Roadster

Before you start, spray all the fixings with a penetrating oil. The more you repeat it and the longer you leave it, the better. Remove the rear panels, the exhaust, the lambda sensor in the exhaust, lower IC pipe and the TIK pipe. Remove the small E10 bolt from just...

Premium Mod Turn Off The Airbag Light450 Fortwo451 ED451 Fortwo452 Roadster453 EQ453 Fortwo/Forfour454 Forfour

Oh Noes! Airbag Light 450 & Roadster Previously, an airbag light on an early smart meant only 1 option, the proper Mercedes diagnostics computer. So, you could either save up and go to a smart dealer, spend less at a smart specialist or buy MB Star yourself....

Normal Mod Tyre And Alloy Damage#1450 Fortwo451 ED451 Fortwo452 Roadster453 EQ453 Fortwo/Forfour454 Forfour

Side Wall Tyre Damage Like rust, the worst type of tyre damage is the type you can't see. SmartCarSpecialist were working on a car and found tyre side wall damage. What makes this unusual is the damage was only on the inside edges of the tyres. The visible outside...

Normal Mod Tyre Dimension Change450 Fortwo451 Fortwo452 Roadster453 Fortwo/Forfour454 Forfour

Whether you want to use wider tyres on your standard alloys or match the original rolling radius with your new alloys, the data is here.

Normal Mod Tyre Pressure Monitors450 Fortwo451 Fortwo452 Roadster454 Forfour

I have only had 1 puncture in the last 10 years. I have been lucky. However, after 1 puncture, you start getting paranoid. When there is a side wind or the road is a bit slippery, you are convinced you have another puncture. It's time for some tyre pressure monitors....

Normal Mod Tyre Sealant And Puncture Prevention450 Fortwo451 Fortwo452 Roadster453 Fortwo/Forfour454 Forfour

Not having a spare tyre can be a concern to some people but there are products that stop a puncture as it happens or cheaper versions that stop you being stranded by the side of the road.
