Replace the damaged shock absorber on a Citroen C3. Lift the car on a column lift and remove the front wheel. Use a socket wrench to unscrew the securing bolts of the shock absorber at the wheel hub (detach the brake line tubes with a screwdriver).

Lift the bonnet and secure it, then unscrew the securing bolts of the shock absorber. Remove the shock absorber from its housing (place a support under the bar). Compare the old part with the new one and prepare for installation.

Install the new shock absorber on the car by screwing in all the previously removed bolts.

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.
