Before you can start, engage first gear and apply the handbrake of your Fiat Panda, then lift the rear side. Begin by removing the rear wheel located near the shock absorber to be replaced by unscrewing the relevant fixing bolts.

This will give you access to the rear shock absorber. Proceed by unscrewing and removing the bolts that secure the shock absorber in place, then remove the shock absorber itself.

Once you have completed this step, you will have finished the disassembly.
