Today's instructions will guide you in removing and replacing the gear knob of the automatic gear lever on the Mazda 3. First, get inside the cabin and start by detaching the plastic cover located at the base of the centre console. Then, disconnect the wiring found underneath and remove the gear gaiter along with the knob (separating the two components), as shown in the video.

At this point, install the new gear knob, refitting the gaiter and securing it properly onto the lever; finally, refit the plastic cover of the centre console!

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Dacia Sandero?

The tyre pressure warning light that appears on the instrument cluster of the Dacia Sandero can be reset by inflating 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 inflation is complete, navigate through the menu that appears on the instrument cluster to find the option related to the tyres: select this with the OK button, which should then be held down for a few seconds to completely turn off the light.
