In this video, we will briefly see how to keep the fluid levels under control on a Dacia Duster MK1: these are all checks to be done with the engine cold. We open the hood and start by checking the oil level dipstick: the correct level is close to "max", without ever exceeding it. We take some absorbent paper, remove the dipstick from its housing, clean it, and then put it back in place, remove it again and check the oil level.

If it is too low, we add a small amount of oil and recheck the quantity until reaching the required level. Now we check the coolant liquid: we open the tank, and here too the level should be close to the maximum level, without ever exceeding it. We add, if necessary, more liquid always of the same color as the one present in the tank.

We check the brake fluid, which theoretically should not be consumed: if the level is low, it means that the pads or discs are wearing out. We top up with a little liquid and then remember to have these components checked. Now we top up the windshield washer fluid: it is important never to add just water, which could be hard, thus dirtying the front glass and worsening visibility.

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.
