How to replace the front shock absorbers on the Alfa Romeo Giulietta? The shock absorbers in question are SACHS gas ones (a good brand for the Giulietta). Start by removing the front wheels and lifting the vehicle with a jack.

Once the wheel is removed, free the stabiliser bar link as shown in the video. You can do this using an Allen key and turning the nut. With the jack, apply pressure under the shock absorber to push it back into its original position.

At this point, free it from its location as shown in the video. Use a rubber mallet to tap out the shock absorber from the hub. Once done, reassemble everything as shown in the video.

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.
