How to Replace the Air Filter on a Fiat 500

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2024
Part: Air filter

Today, we will explain how to independently replace the air filter on a Fiat 500. The filter is installed inside the engine bay directly above the engine within a box. To replace it, open the front bonnet by pulling the release lever located under the driver's dashboard. After opening the bonnet, remove the cover of the box using an Allen key. Open the box cover and remove the worn filter before inserting the new filter inside. Clean with a microfiber cloth.
