Hi all.. tried to start my 2006 ForFour Brabus yesterday after 6 months in my Mum's garage and (unsurprisingly) it's as dead as a Dodo.. what's the correct battery to buy for it?  Thanks

A bit late to ask  ;D, but did you find a solution? .....


Did who find a solution ?  If by that you mean the person who started
the original thread ('gimba'), then he did post the solution to his
issue of both lights coming on at the bottom of the 1st page.....

A bit late to ask  ;D, but did you find a solution? Mine just appeared after driving on a bumpy patch of road. I had to drive 200 km with both lights on until I got home ( car was like usual). Then, today I checked under the car and cleaned everything with a water pressure gun. Before that, the car was parked for three weeks, and due to winter, there was plenty of salt.

From below, everything seemed right; however, the OBD-II showed an error code C1200, indicating a short circuit in the EPS/ABS - front right. I will check the fuses tomorrow just in case.

My Forfour 454 is amazing, with more than 200 000km, and despite its age, I want to keep it until the last day. :-*

Presume by 'constant tension clamps' you mean the metal bands
around the coolant pipes connecting to the throttle body...?

The option is that you can carefully cut them off and replace them
with Jubilee clips.
I have taken throttle bodies off of my ForFour's and the ForFour's of
my daughter and ex wife at least 6 times or so to clean them, but
I have never disconnected those water pipes.  Ok, so it sometimes
has been awkward or inconvenient moving and twisting the throttle
body about...but even then it has still been possible to clean them.

Can one reuse the 'constant tension' clamps? They look hellish to remove.
