Video tutorial

This video tutorial shows the procedure for replacing the cabin air filter on a Nissan Qashqai J11. The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, at the bottom left. To replace the cabin filter, place a soft cloth under your knees as the position can be quite uncomfortable.

First, remove the panel on the left side; it simply pulls off as it is clipped in. The second step is to remove the cover located under the glove compartment. Now, unclip the strap as shown in the video, as it can be bothersome.

Remove the cover of the filter box and extract the old filter element (you can use tweezers to help pull it out, then remove it by hand). Before installing the new filter, vacuum any dirt present in the filter housing.

Install the new filter element, following the arrows on the filter itself.

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.
