To change the air filter on the Toyota Highlander, access the engine bay, open it, and keep it open: the filter is located right next to the engine block, in a large compartment covered by a big black cover. Open the clips that hold it closed, then lift the cover and pull out the filter, which can easily be found on all e-commerce platforms for under £10.00 (+ shipping costs).

Pay attention to the flow direction arrows, and clean the compartment before fitting the new filter. Close the clips and remember to dispose of the used filter properly; do not throw it in the garden like the YouTuber does in the video!

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.
