To replace the EGR valve on a Hyundai i30, turn off the engine and wait for it to cool completely. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, then remove the engine cover and any intake ducts that prevent access to the valve.

Locate the EGR, connected to the manifold and the exhaust gas circuit, and disconnect its electrical connector. Loosen the clamps and remove the connected pipes; on versions equipped with a cooled EGR, there may also be coolant pipes present.

Then unscrew the bolts securing the valve and remove it along with the old gasket. Clean the contact surfaces thoroughly, place a new gasket, and install the new EGR. Tighten the fixings, reconnect the pipes and connector, refit the removed components, and restore any coolant if necessary.

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.
