Thanx mate my car reverse did the same but sometimes I change fast to reverse and it works sometimes it’s doesn’t now I realise it’s has to change fast from 1. Thanks 🙏 man
My 2009 Brabus fortwo has exactly the same issue. Thank you so much for the diagnosis. For the time being I am just going to stick to the quick change which I save up to have the local dealer do the firmware update thank again.
I had the same issue and used Delphi lead to do this seemed to work fine, I also read somewhere it will self learn after battery is disconnected for a while.
You did it right as always . The best thing you did was cleaning the shifter . In my humble opinion you could have gotten away with a relearn but better be safe then sorry
I was driving my Wife's 451 when it made a loud bang then just stopped, in time the engine started but the shift wouldn't work in either direction. Before the incident the car seemed to struggle and made more noise than I would expect, the person we got it from said it was the ECU, a solenoid and software that would make the car work again but I'm no expert and am not sure I believe what I was told.
Hi mate, excellent video. Where do you find software files for updates? I have recently opened my own garage after working in many dealerships. But do not want to pay for server access to do updates. How can I do the same as you? Would really appreciate some advice
Cleaning the actuator is a total waste of time The problem is that the car is detecting input shaft drag The updated soft ware will accept a slightly amount of rotation but the problem is the clutch is finished Replace clutch
Great video. Nice to know that this is a 'known' fault - which we have in intermittently Side question: I purchased a fully automatic gear shift to replace the soft touch for my daughter's 451 I was going to ask my mechanic to swap out the two while he had the car in the shop. Q1: Does he need the TAN code to do the swap or will Xentry take care of that? Q2: Is it too ambitious to try both at the same time? Thanks once again
Have mine in the shop as I write. They say it is not a remapping issue but could be a faulty pump that supplies oil pressure to the gearbox(?). Any ideas?
Hi Does not make a lot of sense... The gearbox is essentially a manual gearbox that has some electric motors/servos to take care of the single plate clutch and the engagement of the gears... Not sure where that oil pressure comes into play... 👍👍👍👍
i got 2 of these cars with gearbox issues, both stops during driving with gearbox stuck, to have car moving need battery disconnect reconnect, no issues in diagnosis, unfortunately i haven't tool that is capable of relearning or reprog the gearbox :( i think is the same issue.
I had the exact same problem and went through all sorts. In the end, I pulled the smart engine, all electronics and jins in the smart ECU's out and weighed them in scrap. Dropped a Honda B16 VTEC bomb proof engine, gearbox and ECU and now with 160+ bhp, it fly's anf no more of this not so "Smart" nonsense.

Awesome video, I just brought a new clutch actuator for my 451, the last one snapped the actuator spline and is doing the same as this video. I assume it needs to go to the dealer for a reteaching?
@@LMAutoRepairs can you guys give me some advice please , I took my 2009 smart fortwo never had on before , the its semi auto and 3 lines come up on dash and i have to restart the car every now and then , i paid a smart car specialist who done a diagnostic and he told me its the gear motor to fix £560+ vat is this the clutch actuator and can I do this myself please please help.
My smart doesn’t go into reverse unless I go into 1st first then put it into reverse, sometimes that doesn’t work (happening after I got the TCU updated and taken apart, cleaned and greased the actuator)
LM Auto Repairs Thanks for the reply, I marked out where the actuator was before taking it off so I could put it back in the same position. As for the TCU update; I sent it off to 4Smart for the update, it did seem to work for a short time after receiving it back (that might just be luck) because now it does the exact same thing shown in your video :(
My mechanic did the actuator cleaning and regreasing, after that he did a reset to the transmission, but when i start to move the car, sometimes it makes a cluncking noise but other than that it shifts just fine. Could it be a reteaching problem? His tester could not perform a teaching to the transmission.
Hi I enjoyed watching this video and it is very helpful. I have the same issue with my Smart and I have been having this trouble for about 3 months now. I know Smart garages charge extortionate prices to fix problem and every mechanic in my area is clueless when it comes to Smarts. I have recently purchased the Xentry software online but it doesn't seem to have the file to flush TPU, do you know why this is and how can I go about getting the software to do this procedure?

Hello there, i want to thank you for you videos, it made me learn a lot. I have a smart fortwo with a gear problem. When the car its not running i can switch gears, but after starting the engine it doesn't swift gears anymore. I switch the clutch kit and actuator and it does the same thing. Can you help me with that? Cheers

Hello, thank you very much for this video. I have the same problem with 451 Smart diesel 2008. It only happened few times tho, I tried to shift reverse from neutral and the N just start blinking.

I'm planning to visit the mechanic in a few days (hopefully the one that knows what I'm talking about), can you please tell me what exact software version should I have on my TCU that may resolve this issue? Is it the SW version from the video? Thanks in advance.

Great job as always!! Just a quick question. I just bought a 2005 MK2 Focus 1.6 101HP manual trans.

No SCN coding necessary for this procedure... as no changes are made... only the update... If you have an account with Xentry, yes you can retrieve the SCN... Thank you for watching!
Hi Louis! Work done is a victory! But ... I want to understand the true cause of the problem. Yesterday it worked, but today it stopped. What happened?
As far as my research went, was something to do with the limits of the actuator... if would move just passing that limit, would cause the issue... could be that temperature could influence it... The fact that I opened it etc, could have also have something to do with it... Who knows... would probably require more time to figure it out... And you probably know how I like to get to the bottom of things.. but sometimes you fix the problem, and that's it... Thank you for watching and for your comment!
No... lol Was kinda intermittent sometimes... Definitely this update solved the problem... After this the car never failed to engage reverse... It did not take off smooth, but that was due to a worn clutch, which I know has been replaced few days later... Thank you for watching and for your comment!
This is an expensive tool, I leave to you to do your research... I don't want to suggest anything, and then something goes wrong and you will blame me for it! You can check here, cardiagtool.co.uk BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! Thank you for watching!
It's rarely a worn clutch. The car gives the clutch a certain amount of time to complete a movement. If it takes too long, it fails. Generally it's because the clutch is binding. The replacement clutches have Teflon splines which don't bind. However, smart's update just increases the time allowed for the actuator movement.
My 451 clutch has started to make a terrible noise on idle. It is as if some bolt has come loose inside. When I drive the car it drives perfectly fine however when it comes to a stop the rough noise is shocking. All the gears work fine. What's gone wrong to my car?
@@LMAutoRepairs thanks so much . I took the car to a few mechanics to try and get their opinion . They all said dual mass flywheel. Confused now what to do. Is this expensive ?
@@LMAutoRepairs I had the same issue, I did the software transmission update and now With the update I have no problems putting on reverse gear, but 5 times to10 the reverse gear scratches a little bit, I would like to understand where the problem is. the car has only 29000km

damn robot, the worst gearbox i've ever seen. Gearbox can't engage R due one thing - there are no any synchronizators on reverse gear , so the best way I found - turn on Forward, go a very little, than turn on R. It works perfect for me
Another over engineered car. I really dont like all this fancy electronics in modern cars, which are built to the cheapest price possible. I tend to stick with good old fashioned manuals cars. Cars from the early 2000s seem to be the most reliable due to not having all these complex electronics?
Agree... however, cars are safer nowadays... and we want it or not, this is the way the industry is moving... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Another over engineered car. I really dont like all this fancy electronics in modern cars, which are built to the cheapest price possible. I tend to stick with good old fashioned manuals cars. Cars from the early 2000s seem to be the most reliable due to not having all these complex electronics?
Agree... however, cars are safer nowadays... and we want it or not, this is the way the industry is moving...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
