If you need to replace a wheel, there are some precautions to avoid unpleasant inconveniences; first, under the load floor of the rear boot, you will find the tool kit (jack, wrench, and emergency triangle) and the spare wheel; before lifting the vehicle, loosen the wheel retaining bolts without removing them, then position the jack at the appropriate reinforcement rib under the door sill and lift the vehicle until the tyre is off the ground; complete the removal of the bolts, take off the wheel and fit the replacement wheel by hand-tightening the bolts enough to lower the vehicle; once on the ground, tighten the bolts with a higher torque.

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.
