When to Change the Gear Oil on a Fiat 500?

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Transmission fluid

The interval for changing the gear oil varies depending on the car model; generally, for small engine cars, change the gear oil every 4 years or 50,000 miles, as is the case with the Fiat 500. To change the transmission oil, lift the vehicle to access the oil drain bolt (located on the gearbox); then remove the fill plug, which is found on the top of the gearbox. At this point, pour the new oil using a tube from the engine bay, filling to the correct level (approximately 2 litres).

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.
