To replace the timing chain on a Nissan Qashqai, open the bonnet to access the components in the engine bay. The chain is located on the left side of the engine block and will be accessible once the side cover and valve cover have been removed. By unscrewing the bolts that secure the chain tensioner, you can reduce the tension on the chain and fit a new one around the respective sprockets.

At this point, remount the chain tensioner and all previously removed components.

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.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
