This is a very easy maintenance task that anyone can do: we turn off the engine and open the hood. The engine filter is located on the right side, in front of the passenger (in a left-hand drive vehicle) and is contained in a rectangular black plastic box, with a large flexible hose leading into the engine.

The cover is secured by 4 to 6 lever clips that, if they are stiff, can be lifted with a flat screwdriver. Some versions may also have a screw that secures the cover near the flexible hose.

We lift the cover (which won't come off completely because it's connected to the flexible hose, but opens enough) and remove the old filter, cover the opening of the duct with a cloth, and then clean the container well, which will definitely be dirty with dust, insects, and leaves.

We remove the cloth, place the new filter in its position, and close the cover.

If there was a screw, we tighten it; otherwise, we snap the clips back in place. That's it.

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.
