Video tutorial

This video guides you through replacing the front brake pads on your car. The preliminary steps are to lift the vehicle on stable axle stands and remove the wheels where the brakes will be serviced. Once done, as shown in the video, proceed to unscrew the two rear bolts holding the brake caliper, allowing you to remove the worn pads and replace them with new components.

The video refers to a fourth-generation Volkswagen Polo, but the procedure is similar for all vehicles equipped with disc brakes.

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.
