Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011

In this video tutorial, see how to replace the suspension springs in the Fiat Punto. First, loosen the bolts on the rear wheel before lifting it.

Using a hydraulic jack, support the rear suspension crossmember. Remove the fixing bolts, and once these are removed, take off the support. Then, gently lower the hydraulic jack to avoid damage. At this point, you can extract the spring and proceed to replace it with a new spring. Follow the illustrative video for the spring installation.
