Fiat Punto - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Radiator
Operation: How to replace the radiator coolant tank in a Fiat Punto.

In this video tutorial, we can see how it is possible to replace the radiator coolant reservoir in a Fiat Punto by following a few simple steps: the first thing to do is to purchase a new reservoir for the radiator coolant from an authorized auto parts dealer and the coolant (Paraflu) for the radiator. Lift the engine hood and secure it with a proper rod. There are two hoses connected to the reservoir, one at the bottom and the other at the top, and the reservoir is held in place by two 10mm nuts. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the clamp holding the upper hose in place and then disconnect the hose, being careful of the coolant that may leak out. Unscrew the two 10mm nuts using a socket wrench with a 10mm insert. Loosen the clamp on the lower hose and lift the reservoir, disconnecting it from the lower hose (place a container to collect the leaking coolant). Install the new reservoir in place and insert the two hoses (upper and lower), tightening their respective clamps; screw in the two 10mm nuts; pour the Paraflu coolant into the reservoir (fill it up to one notch below the upper line).

How to reset the TPMS light of the Volkswagen Polo 2011

The orange tire light indicates the presence of one or more tires with an inflation pressure below the recommended limit. All this is easily solved by inflating them correctly or replacing them in the event of a puncture. After carrying out these operations it is necessary to reset the warning light and therefore also the sensor in order to have new reading data. All you have to do is start the car ignition and then fully open the glove compartment on the passenger side. Locate the two buttons in the right corner and press "Set". At this point the reset is complete and you can turn off the ignition.
