How to Replace the Coolant in a Fiat Punto?

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

Before starting, you need to open the front bonnet of your Fiat Punto. I strongly recommend performing this operation with the engine cold. Begin by undoing and removing the cap from the expansion tank that contains the coolant. Once done, you need to undo and remove the plastic drain nut using a 13mm spanner. At this point, position a container under the tap located at the bottom of the radiator, then undo the tap nut itself. This will allow all the coolant to drain out. When all the coolant has drained, close the tap. Next, top up through the expansion tank, then close the drain screw, and the coolant replacement will be complete.
