How to Replace the Suspension Springs in the Fiat Punto

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

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. Once lifted, completely unscrew the bolts using a 19mm spanner and remove the wheel, being careful while doing so (lift the wheel while unscrewing the bolts). 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.
