The following guide shows how to stop oil leaks in your vehicle. Since this operation can be messy, it is advisable to wear gloves, a work suit, and perhaps cover the floor with a plastic sheet.

If there are leaks, simply tighten the screws and bolts of the gaskets to prevent oil from flowing, but do not overtighten to avoid deforming the gasket. If leaks persist, you will need to replace the gasket, a delicate operation best performed by a trusted mechanic to avoid causing any damage.

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.
