This guide covers the removal of the wishbone on a Fiat Punto. Lift the car using a suitable jack, then remove the front wheel.

Use a socket wrench to unscrew the lower securing bolt of the wishbone and the bolt mounted under the wheel hub, then unscrew the bolts on the upper part of the arm as shown in the video. Remove the wishbone from the bolt seats using a pry bar. Fit the new part: insert the wishbone into the two ends of the guides and start tightening all the bolts on the threads shown in the video (attach the wishbone to the wheel hub and the other end to the chassis).

Refit the wheel after assembly.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
