Loosen the bolts related to the affected rear wheel, lift the car with a jack, and remove the wheel. Using a 17mm socket, unscrew the bolt located behind the brake disc.

Place a support stand under the disc and slide out the shock absorber. Open the boot and remove the cover by detaching all the small plastic clips, as shown in the video.

Now, using an adjustable spanner and a 17mm spanner, unscrew the upper mounting element of the shock absorber. Now, remove the shock absorber.

Take off the retaining washer and dust cover from it as you will reuse them on the new part. The shock absorber you purchased needs to be bled 4-5 times before installation.

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.
