How to Remove the Heater Radiator on Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 1, 176 - Years 1993-1999
Part: Heater core

If the windows inside the cabin tend to mist up easily, and when using the cabin heater a bad smell is noticed, and if the carpet on the passenger side is damp, it is likely that the internal radiator has leaked: replacing this part, which costs around £20.00, requires removing the entire dashboard to access the air duct where the radiator is integrated; start by draining the coolant, disconnect the hoses, and be patient while removing the dashboard and then the duct to replace the radiator; after that, everything will obviously need to be reassembled.
