Let's see how to change the cabin air filter of a Skoda Octavia III: we will need the filter which could be the MANN FP26007 that we can find on Amazon with the code B01CRO65RS at 37.38 euros with free delivery for Prime customers. The filter is located behind the glove compartment, which we need to empty and then grab from the sides and pull towards us with a slight downward pressure.

Do not disconnect it, as it is still connected by the courtesy light wire; place it on the floor. On the side wall of the tunnel we see a rectangular black plastic cover held by clips: let's open it and pull the filter towards us. Clean the compartment well from dust and residue and put the new filter in place, paying attention to the direction of the arrow.

Put the cover and the glove compartment back in place, and that's it.

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.
