How to replace the Fiat 500 gearbox oil

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2024
Part: Transmission fluid

The following video tutorial aims to illustrate the steps to be taken to independently replace the gearbox oil of the Fiat 500 car. To replace the oil in the gearbox, we must lift the vehicle and position it if possible on stands. Using a 24 mm wrench, unscrew the nut that blocks the passage of the gearbox oil and place a container; let the liquid inside escape and close the cap. Then remove the lever that locks the gearbox so that we can drain the last percentages of liquid and then top up.
