Q3 How do I replace the brake pads on a 2017-Present Hyundai IONIQ?
How do I replace the brake pads on a 2017-Present Hyundai IONIQ?
To replace the brake pads, lift the vehicle and remove the wheels. Loosen the caliper bolts and carefully remove the caliper. Take out the old brake pads and compress the caliper piston using a C-clamp. Install the new pads, reattach the caliper, and tighten the bolts. Replace the wheels and lower the vehicle. Test the brakes before driving. For precise instructions, refer to the service manual.
Q4 What should I do if my IONIQ's brakes are squeaking or vibrating?
What should I do if my IONIQ's brakes are squeaking or vibrating?
Squeaking or vibrating brakes often indicate worn pads, warped rotors, or debris in the brake system. Inspect the pads and rotors for wear or damage. If the pads are thin or rotors are uneven, replace them. Clean the brake components to remove debris. If the issue persists, check for caliper misalignment or brake fluid contamination. Consult a professional if needed.
Q5 How can I optimize the performance of my IONIQ's brakes?
How can I optimize the performance of my IONIQ's brakes?
