The materials needed for this job include a new filter, special oil, some tools, and a syringe. Remove the air box and its associated hoses.

To prevent oil from spilling onto engine components, place a container and rags under the filter. Remove the lower hose, open the oil reservoir cap, and let the oil drain into the container.

Once all the oil has been drained, close the reservoir and remove the filter by unscrewing the bolts at the base, then disconnect the two hoses attached to it. Position the container to catch any oil from the filter and clean it thoroughly of any residue.

Remove the support bracket from the old filter and attach it to the new one, which should be positioned in its place after reconnecting the hoses.

Refit the air box and fill the reservoir with a small amount of new oil. Start the engine and continue to draw out the old oil from the reservoir until it is empty. Top up the reservoir with new oil.

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.
