If your bodywork has suffered after a bad impact but the rest of the mechanics are fine, you can try to repair the damaged parts as best as possible. To remove the affected parts of the front and side bodywork, start by removing the front bumper and then the metal part above the wing.

With a few taps using a plastic hammer, try to restore the shape as closely as possible to the original. Once done, refit the removed parts, ensuring all clips, connectors, and screws are correctly positioned.

Give your bodywork a good polish, and the damage will be much less noticeable now.

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.
