To replace the shift knob on the Mercedes A-Class, start by positioning the car on a lift or on a flat surface. At this point, unlock the lower, plastic part of the leather boot covering the shift lever, starting from the shift knob.

Now, pull up the base of the boot along with the leather boot itself to cover the knob, and around the lever, near the knob, unscrew the plastic piece. Set the lever to the neutral position and pull off the stuck knob along with the boot.

Install the new knob along with the boot, reversing the steps taken, and you're done!

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.
