Below we will see the steps that will show us how to dismantle and replace the timing belt of the Citroen C3 1.4 HDi. First, lift the vehicle and start by removing the front right wheel and the wheel arch; then remove the V-belt, loosening the tensioner, and then also the crankshaft pulley (unscrewing the central bolt).

At this point, remove the distribution cover, taking the necessary references before removing the old timing belt; replace it with the new original one. The video also shows the replacement of the water pump.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

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. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
