Video tutorial

When performing maintenance that requires the removal of the cylinder head, it is always advisable to use a new set of bolts for the subsequent installation. Start by re-tapping the threads of the fixing holes on the block with the appropriate tap (check the diameter and pitch of the thread), ensuring that no debris falls into the cylinders.

Then, apply sealant to the bottom of the thread and under the heads of the new bolts, and proceed with tightening in a cross pattern (instructions can be found in specific workshop manuals), using both a torque wrench and a standard spanner.

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.
