Today, this brief guide will show you how to change the engine oil and oil filter on your Fiat Punto. It is not a very complex operation; just be careful, and you can do it without needing a specialist.

First, remove the oil filler cap (to avoid creating a closed chamber when you remove the oil drain plug). To change the air filter, open the two side clips so you can pull out the old filter and insert the new one. Now, move on to removing the oil drain plug (place a container under your Fiat Punto to collect the oil). Meanwhile, remove the oil filter using a ratchet spanner and replace it with the new one. After ensuring all the old oil has drained, you can refit the drain plug and proceed to top up with new oil.
