Feb 20, 2010 · I got à 2006 smart cdi turbodiesel (OM660) and I know quite well this engine. Generally, it's a reliable engine. I have 167000km on mine and a friend got 277000km on his. The most commons problems on this 800cc 3 cylinder are: 1- Turbo: The intake turbine blades fold and the turbo become very noisy but the performances stay good.

Jul 15, 2012 · The white smoke happens when the engine is cold from incomplete combustion on all diesel engines: The white smoke is from cold cylinders not yet hot enough to make the oil explode. The black smoke is from cylinders loaded with cold fuel oil when they finally get hot enough to fire from only the heat of compression, as they burn off the excess ...

Mar 6, 2008 · Here's one reason "smart" quite smartly did not offer the diesel engine in the US. The 40-hp", 0.8-liter turbocharged diesel engine delivers abundant noise and the slowest acceleration of any vehicle we've tested. The ForTwo took 23 seconds to accelerate from 0-60 mph, almost twice the time of other small cars.

Apr 7, 2012 · I have a 2009 Smart Passion. Was working perfectly until today. I can't seem to get it started. I put my foot on the brake, insert key into ignition, all proper lights come on during normal start. Display shows car to be in "Park". Engine begins to turn over but car will not start. I have moved transmission selector to neutral and get the same ...

Nov 12, 2011 · In that vein.....knowing already that the diesel smart is pulling 70 mpg, how about stuffing a Kubota diesel in one, or better yet, get a smart diesel from Canada and use that! I'm a former c/n/c and prototype machinist and engine builder and other than maybe the computerized crap on the transmission, I don't see a real problem putting the ...

Aug 19, 2009 · The overfilling of the oil by your mechanic leads me to believe that he's not at all familiar with the smart cdi and maybe ought not to be working on it. The cdi engine is extremely sensitive to oil level. It should be 2/3 to 3/4 of the way up the "normal " zone, no more.

Jan 29, 2023 · This thread demonstrates how to replace the crankshaft position sensor (CPS) on a smart fortwo (451) with the Mitsubishi 999cc engine.
