To replace the alternator on a Mercedes E-Class, open the hood to access the components in the engine compartment. At the front, you will find the radiator and its corresponding fan. Remove both components from their housing by unscrewing the mounting bolts and disconnecting the appropriate connectors.

Once these parts are removed, unscrew the bolts securing the alternator from the bottom and top of the engine compartment. This will allow you to remove the old alternator and replace it with a new one.

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.
