Before applying the new gasket to the rocker cover, it is essential to clean the gasket seating, both on the cover side and the cylinder head side, from any dirt and debris that could compromise the gasket's adhesion and seal. Once cleaned, without applying gasket sealant, align the new gasket to the perimeter of the cover and position it on the cylinder head, then tighten the respective fixing bolts, ensuring that the gasket does not protrude from its seating but remains aligned with the edges.

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.
