Replacing the timing belt on a Hyundai I10, here’s how to do it. Lift the front bonnet of the car; remove the soundproofing panel, air filter housing, and the belt cover. Place the car on a column lift and remove the front wheel and the right wheel arch liner if necessary.

Use a spanner to loosen the tensioner pulley and slide the belt off its seat. Use a socket to unscrew the tensioner pulley bolt, then remove the water pump as shown in the video.

Fit the new water pump, the tensioner, and the belt itself, tightening everything with the socket. Refit the wheel with the arch liner, the soundproofing panel, the filter housing, and the cover in the engine bay.

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.
