You can replace the camshaft in the Hyundai Santa Fe by opening the bonnet to access the components located within the engine bay: you will need to remove the upper engine cover panel and the valve cover to access the underlying components. The camshaft can be freed from the timing chain and the screws that secure it to the pulley: this way, you can insert the new component into its seat to ensure everything functions correctly.
