Video tutorial
To replace the brake master cylinder, work from inside the cabin, not from the engine bay as one might expect: the cylinder is located beneath the dashboard. Start by removing the trim around the dashboard, then unscrew the relevant retaining screws and complete the disassembly by disconnecting the connectors (it may be advisable to remove the steering wheel, but it is not necessary). Once you reach the master cylinder, disconnect the attached connectors, unscrew the retaining nuts of the pipes, and the bolts securing the cylinder to the brake servo. Then extract the cylinder complete with reservoir, empty the oil, attach the reservoir to the new cylinder, and proceed in reverse for installation. At the end of the assembly, fill the reservoir with oil and pump the brake pedal until it offers the correct resistance.

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. 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. by ScegliAuto More videos
