Let's see how to replace the coolant in the Duratec 1.8 engine of a Ford Mondeo. Safely lift the car and remove the lower cover to access the radiator.

Then, place a container under the radiator drain, open the expansion tank, and unscrew the drain plug to let the old fluid flow out. Close the drain, fill the expansion tank with demineralized water, then start the engine while turning the heater to maximum until the water circulates in the heating circuit.

Turn off the engine and drain the water again.

Repeat this flushing process 2 to 3 times until the water runs clear. Tighten the drain plug well and add 4 liters of concentrated violet OAT VSS M97B44-D coolant (available on auto-doc.it, EAN code 4027816374015, priced at €28.49 for a 5-liter canister (+ €9.95 shipping costs)). Complete the filling with demineralized water up to the maximum level.

No air bleeding operations are necessary. Close the expansion tank cap and start the engine, take a drive, and then check the level again.

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.
