How to Change the Oil on a Fiat 500

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Engine oil

Before proceeding with the engine oil change, ensure the engine is off to operate safely. Once done, lift the vehicle and position yourself directly under the engine. Unscrew the screws and remove the plastic cover. Locate the oil reservoir. Place a suitable container underneath and remove the oil reservoir cap. Allow all the used oil to drain out. Then, screw the cap back on. At this point, you can also reattach the previously removed plastic cover. Move to the front bonnet and locate the oil reservoir. Remove the cap and pour in the new oil. Finally, screw the cap back on and close the bonnet.
