Car diagnostics for the 2012 smart fortwo
For a diagnostic check on the 2012 smart fortwo, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Before the shop sees your fortwo
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 1.0L 3-cylinder. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the fortwo. The 1.0L 3-cylinder does the work, through a 5-speed automatic.
How we help
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
Your rental while you wait
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We collect the rental when your car is back. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Car care, briefly
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
