To replace the auxiliary belt on a Fiat Grande Punto, lift the car to access the side of the engine block from underneath. Here, you can loosen the central bolt of all the pulleys around which the auxiliary belt is positioned.

The belt can then be slid out of its housing and replaced with a new one. Once the new belt is fitted around the pulleys, tighten the nuts securing the central pins and lower the car, removing it from the ramp.
