Replacing the timing belt is a demanding maintenance task that requires good mechanical knowledge and the proper tools. On this model, where the timing belt is installed at the front of the engine, you need to remove the entire front of the vehicle to access the timing belt area.

It is clear that the best solution may be to consult qualified personnel. Once the front is removed, proceed to disconnect the auxiliary belt and replace the timing belt, water pump, tensioner, and the related rollers.

Then reassemble everything and fill the cooling system with the appropriate antifreeze.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
