Re: post facelift engine failure?

It's not unknown for facelift engine failures. The engines have the improved oil control in the pistons, but the precats do still deteriorate, disintegrate and cause other problems. We're starting to see more facelift cars with cracking and pitting precats. Whether the material gets back into the en...

Re: This isn't the mk place to go

I'm pleased to say that RoC has pretty much eradicated the "use the search" attitudes. You'll quickly get answers to questions and there's a lot of experience over there you can take advantage of. I'm biased of course, but we all find where we fit in with the social aspect where it suits o...

Re: Clutch Issue???

Could be the master cylinder or a leak in the system.

Check the level of the flui (you will need to remove the frunk plastics for this. Also check if your car falls into the recall group of chassis numbers - they were recalled and had their master cylinders fixed/replaced FOC.

Now they take tyre stagger to a new extreme, those fronts on the Smart Fortwo's look like they belong on a peddle bike. So one or two people fitted wide wheels on the front and h...
