Learn how to remove and replace the engine air filter on a Dacia Sandero: Open the car door, pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet, securing it with the prop. Remove the engine soundproofing panel, then open the air kit (unscrew the securing screws), remove the cap from the filter box, and extract the worn air filter.

Insert a new filter into the designated housing (ensuring it fits snugly around the edges). Finally, reassemble the filter box cap and tighten the screws.

Close the front bonnet after maintenance.

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.
