To replace the front discs and pads, lift the vehicle on a ramp and remove the front wheel; then unscrew the caliper mounting pins from the bracket and move it carefully to avoid damaging the brake fluid hose; proceed to remove the bracket and then the screws securing the disc to the hub (it is recommended to use a impact screwdriver); clean the disc seat on the hub and apply grease before installing the new disc, which should be cleaned of protective oil; then reassemble the bracket, insert the new pads and retract the caliper pistons before securing it to the bracket.

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.
