Required: Ratchet with a 13mm socket. Fully lower the left window, switch off the vehicle, remove the key from the ignition, and open the left door.

Remove the triangular cover using your hands, disconnect the electric adjustment plug, and remove the bolt with the 13mm socket, taking care not to drop it inside the door, as retrieving it would be very complicated. The mirror is now free and can be removed.

Insert the new mirror, screw in the 13mm bolt, reconnect the electric adjustment plug, and reposition the triangular cover.

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.
