Today we will discover the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the cover of the external rearview mirror of the Mini Cooper. First of all, let's move to the outside of the car and start prying with something thin and pointed on the sides of the mirror cover; let's remove it gently, being careful not to damage the mirror components, as shown in the video.

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.
