Video tutorial

In this video, we see a very concise yet comprehensive overview of the steps to perform a full service on a Fiat 500L: first, lift the car and remove the oil sump plug, allowing the used oil to drain into a suitable container, which should then be disposed of at an authorised centre; next to it is the oil filter, which you will remove to replace, and from above, remove the air filter.

Now, go back down, fit the new sump plug, check the tyre pressure, inspect for leaks, top up the engine oil, check the level, change the cabin filter, and finally reset the maintenance light.

How to Remove the Toll Tag Holder from the Car Windscreen

The toll tag holder is usually attached to the car windscreen to ensure that the toll tag functions immediately when passing through barriers. However, if you decide to remove the holder, you should follow this procedure: - Insert the toll tag into the holder; - Pull the holder inwards to detach it from the windscreen; you can use a glass scraper or a stiff plastic card to assist you; After removing the holder, it is essential to remove the adhesive from the windscreen. To remove the adhesive, we recommend using a solvent-based spray that will remove the glue without clouding the area.
