To remove the ball joint attached to the end of the steering box's axial joint, raise the vehicle on suitable axle stands and remove the front wheel. Extract the safety pin from the nut securing the tie rod end to the hub support and undo the nut itself.

Use a fork-type puller to remove the tie rod end from its seat (if this tool is unavailable, leave the nut threaded on a couple of turns and tap on it to extract the tie rod end). To complete the removal, loosen the lock nut behind the tie rod end and unscrew it, counting the number of turns to ensure the new one is fitted with the same number, minimising any change in alignment.

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.
