How to Open the Glove Compartment of the Fiat Grande Punto with a Broken Handle

Model: Fiat Punto MK 3, Punto EVO, 199, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, see how to open the glove compartment of the Fiat Grande Punto with a broken handle. Unfortunately, this is a common issue: the plastics were not of the highest quality, and these vehicles are now a bit older (and it also depends on how they have been treated). If the handle has come off and the vehicle registration document or the CID form for reporting a minor incident is stuck inside, you can open it by pressing with a small screwdriver (or your fingertip) on the guillotine lever located at the centre of the compartment, which will open.

In this video, you will see where the fuel filter is located in a Volvo XC60 and how to proceed if you need to replace it. As shown, the filter is positioned at the lower part of the engine, right between the left half-shaft and the sway bar attachment. To replace the filter, first, go underneath the vehicle, taking all necessary safety precautions. Then, using an 18mm wrench, open the drain valve and allow any water present to escape.
