To remove the rear shock absorber from a Citroen C4 Picasso, loosen the wheel nuts using a suitable tool (socket wrench or air drill), lift the car on a column lift, and remove the wheel. Using a socket, unscrew the mounting bolts of the shock absorber (at the top and bottom), and remove the bolts at the top; pull the shock absorber out of its housing.

Compare the old part with the new one and prepare for installation: insert the shock absorber into its housing, first tighten all the bolts at the top of the shock absorber, then secure the bottom to the wheel hub.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Warning Light on a Kia Rio?

The tyre pressure warning light displayed on the instrument cluster of the Kia Rio can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the recommended pressure value: this value is indicated on the sticker affixed to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
