To reposition the lights on this model, you don’t need to visit a mechanic or auto electrician; you can easily perform this simple and quick operation yourself, saving unnecessary costs. Lift the hood, and just above the headlight, you will notice a plastic bolt that, when turned, allows you to raise or lower the headlight position.

To see the changes, make sure you are in a dim environment with dark panels to observe the adjustments. You can also adjust the fog lights using a bolt located slightly higher and to the left of the headlight in question.

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.
