To replace the engine oil and filter on a first-generation Chevrolet Trax, bring the engine to its normal operating temperature, then switch it off and safely raise the vehicle. Place a container under the oil sump and remove the drain plug to allow the complete drainage of the used lubricant.

Next, unscrew the oil filter and replace it with a new one, having lubricated the seal with a small amount of clean oil. Once the drain plug is refitted, fill the engine with oil of the grade recommended by the manufacturer. Finally, start the engine for a few moments, check for leaks, and check the oil level with the dipstick, adding oil if necessary.

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.
