If you notice any oil droplets on the mat of your Volkswagen Golf VII or if the clutch pedal feels a bit "slack", as our YouTuber says, it means the clutch pump needs replacing because the cylinder is plastic and deteriorates easily. You need to remove the pedal assembly from inside the cabin.

You will require the original pump (available online for about £80.00), and you should also replace the O-rings and plastic bushes shown in the video, as they may leak in the future if not replaced. The system will then need to be bled to restore it to perfect condition.

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.
