Video tutorial

In this video, we see how the automatic opening tailgate of the DS7 works: a common mistake is to look for the sensor "too low" on the bumper. Instead, the sensor is external, and you need to pass your foot "near" the rear bumper, not underneath.

Only then will the tailgate open immediately, without fumbling under the bodywork as if you have lost your mind. The solution is much simpler than it may seem; just approach, perhaps with your hands full of shopping bags, and extend your foot: the tailgate will open, allowing you to place everything you are holding in the boot.

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.
