Replacing the brake pads on a Discovery? Let's look at replacing the left front brake pads. Lift the vehicle on a column lift to the desired height, then remove the wheel with a socket wrench.

Unscrew the caliper locking pin and remove the caliper from the caliper bracket. Once the brake disc is free from its caliper, detach the worn pads.

Replace them with new parts (always use original and compliant parts). Install the new pads in the brake caliper and then reattach the caliper to the disc.

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
