Today, I will show you how to change the engine oil and filter on your Fiat Panda. 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). Now, move on to removing the oil drain plug (place a container under your Fiat Panda 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.
