Let’s see the replacement of the timing belt on a Nissan Qashqai. Lift the car on a column lift and remove the front wheel with a screwdriver, then the right plastic splash guard.

Use a spanner to loosen the tensioner pulley and slide the belt off its seat. Use a socket to unscrew the tensioner pulley securing 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. Finally, refit the splash guard with the associated pins and reattach the wheel with the tyre to the vehicle.

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.
