First, lift the hood and secure it with the prop rod. Next, remove the plastic cover and then unscrew the oil filter. After removing the plastic cover, take out the screws.

To loosen the oil filter, use a cup wrench (65 / 14). Then, remove the plug located under the vehicle; first, lift the oil dipstick and unscrew the oil fill cap. (If you work with a hot engine, the oil drains out faster). After raising the vehicle and securing it with jack stands, remove the undercarriage cover to access the 13 mm plug.

Place a drain pan underneath to let all the oil drain out. While the oil finishes dripping, unscrew the oil filter, bringing it almost to complete removal. After a few minutes, remove the filter completely.

Replace the filter with a new one and tighten it to about 2.5 lb-ft. Screw in the plug under the engine like a regular bolt with a 13 mm wrench. Refill the oil (0w-30) with 6.5 quarts.

Job complete.

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.
