Briefly review the steps to perform the routine maintenance service by replacing the engine oil and oil filter of the Fiat Punto. First, raise the vehicle and start draining the oil by unscrewing the drain bolt found on the sump; then use the appropriate spanner to unscrew the oil filter, replacing the cartridge with a new one (screw it in by hand and tighten gently), as shown in the video.

At this point, unscrew the filler cap and top up the oil, checking the oil level with the dipstick!
