How do I change the brake pads on my Kia Ceed?

I recently noticed my brakes are not working as well as they used to and suspect it's time to change the brake pads. Can someone provide me with step-by-step instructions on how to change the brake pads on my Kia Ceed?

The first step is to loosen the lug nuts on the wheels. Then, jack up the car and remove the wheel. Next, remove the two bolts holding the caliper in place and gently remove the caliper. You can then access the brake pads and replace them. Remember to properly clean and replace all the components before putting the caliper back on.

I would recommend using a brake pad spreader tool to compress the piston on the caliper before removing the old brake pads. This will make the process much easier and prevent any damage to the caliper.

Make sure to properly break in your new brake pads by gradually applying pressure and releasing the brake pedal multiple times before driving at high speeds.
