How to replace the gear knob of a BMW

Model: BMW BMW Various
Part: Shift knob

Video tutorial

In this video we can see how to change the gear shift knob on a BMW that has been very damaged. We can find the new piece on Amazon with the code B0BX86H4C3 for the price of 17.99 euros, with free delivery for Prime customers.

To remove the used knob from the gear stick, we simply have to pull with all the force we have - and try not to hit our head on the car ceiling - even though some schools of thought suggest lifting the leather cover first, removing the plastic clip from the inside that holds the knob and the leather cover together: this should make it much easier - now we can put the knob back in place, which, if removed less violently, will fit perfectly, unlike the example in the video.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
