Hi all,
another Smart E.R. video to aid with the home DIY mechanic do a service on their beloved car. I have completed the Spark plug change in under 10 mins start to end where there are no snags or issues, such as broken Coil packs or Seized Spark plugs.
The engine here is the 1.0 non turbo kind and I believe it's the same process for the turbo version as well. The same engines for a Smart Fortwo or Forfour.
There are other videos covering a full oil change, oil filter change, air filter change and pollen/cabin filter change for you do a DIY home service.
My strongest recommendation is to avoid a cheap plug removal tool and get a fit for purpose thin walled, magnetised plug removal tool. The new rear panel design in the engine bay makes plug removal on a 453 soooo much easier than a 451.
Coming soon, the serpentine or accessory belt replacement .
Thanks
Gareth
