Yes, you can use a Carly diagnostic adapter to put the electronic parking brake into workshop mode. First, ensure your vehicle is on a flat surface and the ignition is on. Connect the Carly adapter to the OBD-II port and open the Carly app. Navigate to the service section and select the option for the electronic parking brake. Follow the on-screen instructions to retract the brake calipers. Make sure you have the necessary tools for the brake disc change, such as a jack, wheel chocks, and a torque wrench. After the change, use the app to reset the parking brake. Let me know if you need further assistance or have any questions!
Thank you for the information.

The answer is too general for me. It needs to work on a Seat Leon 1.2 TSI from 2017. If not, then I can't use it. From 2017 onwards, there's a "Getaway" lock on VAG vehicles.

For your Seat Leon 1.2 TSI from 2017, you can still use the Carly adapter to access the electronic parking brake. However, due to the "Getaway" lock, you might need to ensure your Carly app is updated to the latest version, as updates often include compatibility improvements for newer security features. Follow the same steps as mentioned before, and if you encounter any issues, consider checking for any specific updates or instructions related to your vehicle model within the app. Let me know how it goes or if you have more questions!
