How to do a complete service on a Fiat Punto 1.2 petrol car

Model: Fiat Punto MK 3, Punto EVO, 199, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we see how to do a complete service on a Fiat Punto 1.2 petrol: first of all we open the oil filler cap, then we go to open the drain cap located under the car, placing a container for collecting the used oil, which we will then dispose of at an authorized center; with a special cup for removing the filter (if possible) we also remove the filter, which is located right next to the oil pan; be careful because this also leaks oil, let's see if we can direct it into the same container. In the meantime, we change the air filter inside the engine compartment, first disconnecting the supply pipe, then unscrewing the two sealing bolts and lifting the entire airbox, removing the smaller pipes. We unscrew the three screws on top and the three screws underneath and change the filter inside, then we put the airbox back in place. Then we put the oil cap back on the oil pan (preferably new) then top up the new oil, using a funnel, and change the oil filter. Inside the passenger footwell we find the pollen filter, where the door is held by a very small screw; we change the filter after cleaning the compartment from dirt and residue and close the door. Now we start the car for a minute and check the oil level.
