How to replace the tailgate pistons on the 2009 Grande Punto

Model: Fiat Punto 199, MK 3, Punto EVO, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018
Part: Hydraulic pistons

In this video we will see how to replace the rear tailgate pistons of the Grande Punto 2009. The operation is quite simple but it takes two because once the two old pistons have been removed, the tailgate gives way. So it is necessary that while one is installing the new ones, the other must hold the tailgate. To remove the old pistons, use a slotted screwdriver and exert a slight pressure on the clip located at the end of the piston and remove it from the tailgate sphere. After having disassembled a piston, you can begin to assemble the new one by inserting the ball inside the entry hole of the piston, exerting a slight pressure. All this will take 5 minutes.
