Fiat Punto - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Punto 188, MK 2 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Door
Operation: How do you remove the door tie rod of the Fiat Punto?

To be able to remove the door tie rod of the Fiat Punto, the door panel must first be removed. Subsequently, with a 6mm Allen key, it will be necessary to remove the bolts located on the tie rod itself. Subsequently it will be necessary to unscrew the torx screws that fix the tie rod to the bodywork: this will allow to remove the old tie rod. The new spare part must be inserted through the holes on the panel and inserted into its housing. It will have to be fixed again with the two Allen screws and the torx screws removed earlier. Finally, the door panel will have to be fitted.
