How to check the tire condition

Model: Fiat Fiat Various
Part: Tires

Video tutorial

In this video we can see how to effectively check the condition of our tires by ourselves: first of all, we need to check the tread, which should have a depth of at least 1.6 mm. To verify this height, there are the so-called "indicators", which are these squares found inside the grooves; when the tread reaches the same level, it means that the tire needs to be changed.

We can also do the test with a 2 euro coin: if it remains stuck, the tire still has enough tread.

We also need to check that the tire wear is uniform: otherwise, the vehicle needs to be balanced. We also need to check that there are no tears or breaks on the tire shoulder.

Finally, we will check the pressure, comparing it with the one recommended by the manufacturer, which is indicated on the label found on the driver's door frame.

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.
