How to Replace the Front Brake Pads on a Hyundai Tucson

Model: Hyundai Tucson JM, MK 1 - Years 2004-2009
Part: Hydraulic pistons

Follow these steps to replace the front brake pads on a Hyundai Tucson. Lift the vehicle on a column jack (crick) to the desired height, then remove the wheel (using a socket wrench or air drill) with the respective bolts. Unscrew the retaining bolt of the brake caliper and remove it from the wheel hub. Use a screwdriver to detach the pads to be replaced from the caliper; remove the brake caliper and subsequently the disc (if replacing). Install the new pads onto the caliper, mount the brake caliper back onto the hub. Tighten all bolts and reinstall the wheel. Prepare to perform the same operations on the other calipers present on the vehicle.
