How do you reset the automatic transmission of the Smart car?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Warning light – error code

When the flashing letter N appears on the Smart instrument panel, it means that the vehicle's automatic transmission has a malfunction. To temporarily resolve this issue, you can put the car in gear when the engine is off. Then, with the gear engaged and the ignition key in position two, push the car so that it can be started. Once the clutch is released during the pushing operation, the car will start. However, it is important to promptly take the car to the workshop for a diagnosis to identify the cause of the anomaly, which is often of an electronic nature.

How to Replace the Timing Belt on a Chevrolet Matiz

How to replace the timing belt on a Chevrolet Matiz. Open the bonnet and secure it, lift the car on a column lift (if necessary, remove the front wheel using a screwdriver to take off the right wheel arch liner).

Use a socket spanner to undo the securing bolt of the tensioner pulley, then remove the water pump as shown in the video. Fit the new water pump, the tensioner, and the belt itself, tightening everything with the socket spanner. Finally, refit the rivets along with the wheel arch liner and reattach the wheel with the tyre to the vehicle.
