Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to change the diesel filter of the Renault Trafic: we open the hood and equip ourselves with a T30 hex key; the filter is located at the top left when facing the vehicle from the front; we remove the screw located right above the filter, then place a cloth or absorbent paper under the filter, because some diesel will come out when removing it. We lift the cover, letting it swing a little, and then remove the filter element to be replaced.

We take the new element, wet the new gasket with a little diesel, place it in its seat, and then put the filter inside the container; then we put the cover back on with the new screw, which we tighten.

Now we need to refill the diesel, through the cap next to the cover, where there is a manual pump to draw up the diesel. Once done, put it back in its container.

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.
