To replace the front brake pads, it is advisable to lift the vehicle on a ramp, but you can also work with a jack (always apply a jack stand for safety); proceed by removing the front wheel, then move on to the fixing pins of the brake caliper; once the caliper is removed, extract the old pads and remove the sliding plates; then apply the new plates after brushing the corresponding housing and insert the new pads; finally, reassemble the brake caliper after retracting the piston by pressing it with a mole grip.

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.
