In this video, we will see how to solve the problem of gears skipping on the Peugeot Boxer and other models based on the same chassis. If we have difficulty engaging the lower gears and reverse, it is not necessary to change the transmission oil, but just to make a simple adjustment.

We need to remove the gear shift boot, put the lever in fourth gear to create more space, and then use a small screwdriver to press down on this spring we see on the left, pushing it down until it locks. If necessary, we can assist with our hands.

It’s complicated, and having small hands definitely helps. When the spring is fully down, first and second gears engage well, but not reverse, so we will need to raise the spring again, adjusting it to a position where reverse also engages properly; if needed, we can grease the gears to ensure they move better.

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.
