How to replace the coolant of the Fiat Punto?

Model: Fiat Punto 199, MK 3, Grandepunto , Punto EVO - Years 2005-2018
Part: Antifreeze coolant

Before starting, it will be necessary to open the front hood of our Fiat Punto. I highly recommend doing this with a cold engine. So let's start by unscrewing and removing the cap of the expansion tank that contains the coolant inside. Once this is done, we will have to unscrew and remove the plastic bleed nut, using a thirteen millimeter wrench. At this point, we will have to proceed by placing a container under the tap located in the lower part of the radiator, and then unscrew the tap nut itself. By doing so, all the coolant will drain out. When all the coolant has run out, we will have to turn off the tap. Subsequently we will have to top up through the expansion tank, and then close the bleed screw, and the replacement of the coolant will be finished.

To perform this simple operation, first lift the bonnet. Then, remove the upper engine cover and the plastic side cover that protects the timing belt. To create more space for the job, you can remove components next to the engine, such as the coolant reservoir, the windscreen washer pipe, and the fuel filter. This will allow you to remove the lower engine cover and the right wheel for better access to the area where you will be working. Now, relieve the tension from the tensioner pulley and remove the belt for replacement.
