One more question on the maintenance on our 2006 Hyundai Azera. The manual calls for replacement of the “Fuel tank air filter” @30K mile intervals. Is this something I can do? If so where is it… and how do I replace it?  
  
 Thanks, J. Ries

It is accessed in trunk on left side behind panel. remove panel, you will see a hose about an inch in diameter attached to filter housing. Remove hose from housing, remove electrical connector, replace filter.
