Video tutorial

Loosen the wheel bolts of the affected wheel, raise the car with one or two jacks, and remove them completely, then take off the wheel. Unscrew the two rear bolts of the brake caliper (use WD-40 spray if needed) and lift the caliper: this will allow you to extract the brake pads, which will now be free.

While you're at it, clean the entire braking area as shown in the video. Insert the new brake pads, position the caliper, and screw in the two bolts you initially removed.

Refit the wheel and you're done. Check that the car brakes correctly.

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.
