In the unfortunate event that the accelerator becomes stuck at full throttle, it is best to take preventive measures before it can cause an accident. The issue is simply due to the plastic stop located on the carpet to prevent it from forming a hole.

This plastic disc has a small diameter and a thin edge that allows the pedal to jam, keeping the engine revved to maximum. To resolve the problem, simply remove the disc from its seat and install the new improved version.

The thicker edge and larger diameter prevent this serious inconvenience.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
