The message "Service Vehicle Soon" does not necessarily indicate that the car needs a service. In fact, it can mean almost any electrical or mechanical problem.

In most cases, on these models, the culprit is one of two components: the glow plugs or the mass air flow (MAF) sensor. To diagnose, connect a diagnostic scanner and read the error codes.

In the video, code P0672 indicated a malfunction of the glow plug in cylinder 2. The system is equipped with special glow plugs that have an integrated compression sensor, allowing monitoring of the combustion pressure in each cylinder. In this case, for the repair, remove the engine cover, warm up the engine, and spray WD40 around the glow plugs.

Using a 12 mm socket and an extension, unscrew the faulty glow plug. Insert the new glow plug and tighten to 5 Nm. Reconnect the connector and clear the code with the scanner.

If the message returns, also check the MAF sensor.

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.
