Replacing the Gear Gaiter on Fiat 500

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Shifter boot

Removing the gaiter from the Fiat 500? Remove the knob to change the damaged gaiter. Use a screwdriver to remove the plastic cover on the knob, then unscrew the gear knob with a socket or spanner. Remove the leather gaiter from the edge of the centre tunnel using a plastic lever. Take the new gaiter and fit it onto the rod present on the centre tunnel, then fit the new knob and screw it in with the spanner. Once the gaiter and knob are fitted, install the plate with the gear numbers. Test the fitting of the plastics.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
