To change the brake pads, first lift the vehicle on a support and remove the wheel from the axle in question. Use a large screwdriver to push the piston back into its resting position, then unscrew the lower part of the bracket, unscrew the screws, and remove the clips and springs to extract the brake pads from the caliper.

Once you have replaced the discs and pads, reposition them in the caliper, and to fit the new ones, simply reassemble the springs and clips. It is also advisable to press the brake pedal until it becomes firm so that the pads and disc come close enough to allow for proper braking.

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.
