Lift the vehicle on a lift and remove the wheel corresponding to the repair area. Remove the mounting pins of the brake caliper located at the rear and take it off its mount (if necessary, also remove the caliper support).

Tap the disc with a hammer to free it from the hub and remove it. Clean the hub and the pad seating on the support from any oxidation residue and apply grease to prevent new rust formation. Then install the new brake disc and secure it with a wheel mounting pin. Insert the new pads into the respective support; retract the caliper piston (using the appropriate tool) and reposition it on the support by tightening the respective mounting pins.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
