Video tutorial

In this video we see a problem with the emergency call system of a Skoda Scala: after turning on the car, an error message appears on the display regarding the emergency system, which does not reset even by pressing the red SOS button located on the roof, near the dome light.

In fact, the message tells us to contact the dealership.

In reality, as some reputable newspapers like "The Guardian" have reported, there has been a constant stream of complaints regarding this issue, from all brands of the VAG group, namely Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, and Skoda. Many of these vehicles have experienced this problem, where sometimes a software update by the dealership was sufficient, while for others this was not enough and the problem continued to occur in a very annoying manner.

What was supposed to be a help in case of need, has ultimately proven to be a nuisance, and in some cases the SOS module had to be completely replaced.

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.
