If you want to proceed with a DIY approach to replacing the oil and oil filter on this vehicle, refer to the instructions below. Open the bonnet and unscrew the oil filler cap. Then, lift the vehicle and unscrew the drain plug, ensuring you have placed a container to collect the used oil. Wait a few minutes for all the oil to drain out, then refit the plug.

Next, locate the oil filter, which is situated beside the sump, and remove it using the appropriate spanner. Replace it with the new one, ensuring you change the gasket.

Finally, return to the engine bay and fill the system with the new lubricant.

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.
