Lift the vehicle on suitable car stands and remove the front wheel; use a screwdriver to lever between the disc and the caliper to retract the piston slightly, detach the external retaining spring of the pads, remove the protective caps from the caliper fixing pins and take them out to complete the removal of the caliper and extract the old pads; clean the sliding plates and the caliper fixing pins (it is also useful to apply copper grease), insert the new pads, reattach the spring and tighten the caliper fixing pins.

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.
