Here's how to remove the engine air filter on an Opel Astra. Open the car door, pull up the lever to open the engine compartment located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet, securing it with the prop rod. Remove the engine soundproofing panel, then open the air intake kit (unscrew the securing screws around it), uncover the filter box cap and extract the worn air filter.

Insert a new filter into the designated housing (ensuring it fits snugly around the edges). Finally, reassemble the air box cap and tighten the screws.

Close the front bonnet after completing the task.

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.
