Comparison between summer and winter tyres on the Fiat 500 Abarth

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Wheel

This video shows a comparison between two tyres, 195/45 R16 84V, at a temperature of -9.5°C on snowy, wet, and icy surfaces. The tyres are fitted on two Fiat Abarth 500s. One vehicle has winter tyres, while the other has summer tyres, allowing us to observe their different behaviours. The vehicle equipped with winter tyres can handle the described conditions with optimal grip, shorter braking distances, cornering stability, and uphill traction. In contrast, the summer-equipped vehicle struggles in several areas, particularly downhill, where the situation becomes more precarious, and only the instructor driver can safely operate the vehicle, which is otherwise unstable.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
