Services
With no independent smart car specialist in Birmingham or the West Midlands, Smart-TECNIC was formed in 2010 with the intention of providing smart car owners in the region with the best specialist service and knowledge at ordinary prices. Since opening we have rapidly become the foremost name in central England and beyond for knowledge and expertise in smart Cars.
At Smart-TECNIC we pride ourselves on being able to carry out all aspects of servicing, repair and maintenance for smart cars. Here are some details and information on the services we carry out. Smart-TECNIC can carry out re-gassing and repairs to air-conditioning systems on all makes of Smart car at competitive prices.
Regular servicing helps to ensure that your Smart Car operates in a reliable and efficient manner. It is possibly the single-most important factor in ensuring the longevity of your car's life. Regular car servicing helps to ensure the safety and performance of your Smart Car, as well as increasing fuel efficiency and reducing carbon emissions.
Smart-TECNIC recommends an intermediate oil change at 5,000 miles or six months and we can carry this out for just 48, which is possibly cheaper than the oil can be bought for at an outlet such as Halfords. We use fully synthetic oils at exactly the right specification for your car (ACEA A3, MB 229.3 or 229.5) which are supplied to us by Mercedes-Benz themselves - exactly the same oil used at the main dealerships.
A Smart City-Coupe came to us with non working headlights which we traced to this badly damaged connector on the SAM unit. It looked as though a bodged repair had been undertaken previously. At Smart-TECNIC we were able to source a connector to replace the damaged one and light was restored. We have seen a number of Roadsters now with corroded wiring to the headlamps, rendering them inoperative.

I'm in the trade. I presented a host of launches for Smart UK, three Smart Car European Festivals at Brooklands, I race cars, know about vehicle tech. I wouldn't take either of our Smarts anywhere else. Ben is the best guy on Smarts I've ever met. It's a whole different level of service to a main dealer, I actually care about my cars - as many Smart owners do - so does Ben, he owns and drives LOTS of Smarts, mods them, tunes them, services them. In short he's the smartest Smart guy in the business. Don't go anywhere else. I wouldn't.

Came to smart technic to help with an undiagnosed noise coming from the engine. Ben pin pointed the problem quickly and it seems a small piece of grit had shredded my fan belt so Ben changed it for me on the same day. I’m super pleased with the service provided by smart technic and I highly recommend Ben at smart technic ☺️ thankyou!

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Value
We've used Smart-TECNIC on four occasions for repairs to our Roadster and parent's Fortwo. Their technical knowledge, experience and enthusiasm for these cars really stands out. We wouldn't trust anyone else.

Needed a new alternator and a few other jobs doing for my Roadster which many garages won't touch. I found Ben really helpful and can't fault the work done. Some of the things they fixed I hadn't mentioned when I booked it in and I just asked on the day - it was all ready the following afternoon. I'll definitely be taking it here from now on for all issues.

I could say Ben and Jack at Smart-TECNIC are great and leave the feedback there. But after reading many great reviews I took my Smart ForTwo 450 to Smart-TECNIC for a Smart “C” service, gearbox oil change,… replacement of the N/S drop glass and quarterlight due to pitting on the glass and to find the cause of a heavy knock from the N/S front.
You quickly realise why both Ben and Jack are so highly recommended. My Smart received the best care and attention that any garage could offer and whilst a local garage to me couldn’t find the cause of the knock, Smart-TECNIC, who

Brilliant. Mark has a gut feeling about my Smart which has always been proven right. My beautiful smart was towed to another garage took the mechanic there days to come up with diagnosis. Well Mark already knew just by the symptoms I had reported to him. The other garage couldn't fix it. Little one about to be towed to smarttecnic Birmingham. With my car under their care I can finally rest and finally start my rather late Panic buying. I hear there isn't much left in the supermarkets anyway. I guess I'll have to water fast which I do regularly anyhow. Stay safe everyone. Love Elvira

Third time I've been to Smart-TECHNIC now and each time I've been no less than delighted with the work Ben has done for me. I've been to several garages over the years with the 12 different Smart ForTwos I've owned and Smart-TECHNIC stand head and shoulders over anywhere else. I wish I'd found them sooner. Ben's knowledge is second to none and the work is both thorough and charged at sensible rates. I would NEVER take a Smart Car to anyone else and this is the only garage I've ever been motivated so positively to do a review on.
