Lift the vehicle and apply suitable axle stands. Then remove the wheel and the brake caliper, which must be taken off along with the pads; also remove the caliper bracket to allow for the subsequent removal of the disc.

Unscrew the disc retaining bolt and remove it from the hub. Install the new disc, reattach the caliper bracket and, of course, install a new set of brake pads. When replacing discs, the pads must also always be replaced even if they are not completely worn: the old pads will have the imprint of the old disc and will not adhere well to the perfectly machined surface of the new disc; if you really do not want to replace them, they should at least be ground down with sandpaper.

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.
