Let's see how to replace the cabin filter in a BMW X1: The filter is located behind the glove compartment, where you only need to remove the bottom panel using two Torx screws of 10 mm; it is not necessary to empty or completely disassemble it. Once the bottom panel is removed, you will find the cover of the filter, but to access it, you need to unscrew two security Torx screws of 20. Then, two clips will allow you to open the hatch where the filter is located.

In this case, an activated carbon filter is reinstalled; as with regular filters, pay attention to the direction of airflow.

Once the filter is reinserted, you can close the clips, screw in the screws, and reattach the bottom panel of the glove compartment by tightening the 10 mm Torx screws. The job is done.

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.
