The majority of those Sections have 'Child Boards' that show beneath them, and they contain
numerous Technical Guides describing 'How To fix and repair', with instructions + photos
& diagrams to ForFour owners, each of which is written by the Admin Team and Forum Members !
(MB never permitted anyone to publish a 'Workshop Manual' for the Smart ForFour, their
intention for doing that was you had no option but to use their Dealer garage network !)NOTE:- The Forum is completely free ! It is not 'supported' by paid advertisements.So...if you want to see everything, including the essential Technical 'How To' Guides on how
to maintain and do ANY work on your car, then you need to apply to join the Forum.
BUT... before you apply to join, take the time to read, understand, but more importantly,
USE the information given in the following link when you complete your Application :-
http://www.forfour.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=2230.0It is vital you provide exactly what we state as being required in order to be approved....Read what is in that link
carefully and provide the information that is stated as required.
If you do not do that, then your Application will not be approved.
SO...re-read that link one more time...please..
Be aware...the Application process requires you to answer
a lot of unrelated + pointless
né 'stupid' questions ! Those questions are the first line of defence against 'auto sign in' programs
or 'botnet' programs used by spammers & hackers to gain access to websites, forums etc.
Neither you nor we want such 'undesirables' to be able to send you spam mail, or links to
pornography or phishing websites, and that is the reason for those questions.
Additional informationALL Applications to join are checked against a range of continuously updated and
verified global database
s of known spammer/hacker IP addresses, and...we have
other 'tools' at our disposal to further check out the details of anyone applying to join.
These checks take a while to go through....SO...
Please note...the Admin Team operate the Forum on a purely voluntary unpaid basis
...IN THEIR OWN FREE TIME...between work, family, and their social life.Applications normally take no more than 48 hours to be approved, but on the odd
occasion it may take up to a week, as we too go on holiday/vacation etc., so we
kindly ask you for your patience...but be assured, we action every request as soon
as we are able to do so.
IF you do not receive an approval email from us within 7 days,
check your email spam/junk/bin folders...we may have sent you 1 or 2 email/s
asking you to confirm/clarify details you provided (or failed to provide) on your Application.
As we have stated, there is specific information you must provide, and in a particular format.NOTE -1/ if you use a 'proxy' IP address then your Application may possibly be rejected
due to spammers using the same 'proxy' IP address. If we think that this is the
case then we will email you for further information to enable us to run further checks.
2/ Applications from 'questionable' or spammer based 'addresses' (according to the
various checks we make) will be rejected. If any are found, the address or addresses
will be added to our database; which will reject any future Applications; but we will
also share that information with all the global spam/hacker databases we interact with.
If you are identified as such then you will not receive any email communication from us
and the Application/s will be deleted.
Many thanks....
