I will explain how to adjust your car's driver side window. Remove the door panel to access the window regulator mechanism; this will ensure that it closes properly and seals against the weatherstripping in the future.

In front of you, you will find various slots (holes) where you can see two supports holding your window; now, the goal is to intercept them halfway up the door so you can see the bolts that hold everything in place. Take a wrench and start loosening the bolts slightly.

Now, with careful observation, try to align your window as precisely as possible until you are confident that your problem is resolved. After that, tighten the bolts and ensure that your work has been successful.

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.
