To remove the rear bumper, start by opening the boot and unscrewing the screws attached to the clips along the top edge of the bumper near the boot catch. Next, remove the two rear wheels to unscrew the screw and remove the clip to shift the wheel arch protection.

Once this is done, you can unscrew the nut that secures the bumper to the bracket. Obviously, repeat the same operation on the other side of the bumper.

Now, just remove the last clips from under the bumper as shown in the images and finally detach the bumper, starting from one end and then the other symmetrically. Car model: Ford Focus Year: 1999 - 2007 Tools required: cross screwdriver, 10 mm socket spanner.

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.
