Video tutorial

In this video, we can see the display of a Fiat Grande Punto lighting up with the message "check transmission, see the owner's manual". This message can be alarming. The issue is that the oil pump of the gearbox has failed, and the problem is resolved by replacing it. The part number is 71769597; alternatively, it can be found from competitors on eBay under the code 314506807089 for the price of £78.99 plus £5 for delivery.

Unfortunately, the video does not show how to physically replace the pump, only how to identify the fault.
