Worn brake discs can compromise braking performance, so it's advisable to replace them. Remove the brake caliper using a ratchet spanner by unscrewing the two rear bolts.

Dismantle the caliper bracket in the same manner after removing the brake pads. Using a crosshead screwdriver, unscrew the two retaining screws of the disc while holding it steady.

Clean the bracket thoroughly from debris using a deoxidising spray and a wire brush. Clean the new discs before installation to remove the protective grease.

Refit the disc, aligning the fixing holes. For securing the bracket and caliper, use new screws if possible; otherwise, clean and lubricate the old ones.

Use a wire brush to remove most of the accumulated dirt. Reposition the piston to the start position and fit the new pads.

Reattach the caliper and the wheel.

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.
