Before lifting the vehicle, loosen the wheel fastening bolts. Then, lift the vehicle and place it on suitable axle stands to complete the wheel removal.

Next, unscrew the bolts securing the brake caliper to its bracket and remove both the caliper and the old brake pads. Apply copper grease to the back of the pads, the sliding plates, the caliper piston, and the caliper fastening bolts.

Compress the piston using a pair of pliers and proceed with reassembly in reverse order.

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.
