To replace the timing chain on a Fiat Punto, open the bonnet to access the components located inside the engine compartment: on the left side of the engine block, you will find the chain under the corresponding protection panel. Once this panel has been removed, unscrew the bolts securing the tensioner, detach it, and completely remove the chain.

The chain should then be replaced with a new spare part, reattaching the tensioner and all other previously removed parts.
