Nissan X Trail - Video tutorial

Model: Nissan X Trail MK 1, T30 - Years 2001-2006
Part: Glow plugs
Operation: How to replace glow plugs on Nissan X-Trail

In this video tutorial we can see how to replace the glow plugs on Nissan X Trail. Lift the bonnet and secure it with the appropriate rod; disassemble the parts to access the spark plugs. Diesel engine spark plugs do not need to be replaced after certain kilometers as they perform their function for a limited time, only when the engine is started, by preheating the combustion chamber. If the spark plugs don't work properly in low temperatures, the car may struggle to start and the battery immediately goes flat. By doing a test we immediately see that the new spark plugs immediately become incandescent (this test must be done to avoid fitting a faulty spark plug). Spray a little degreaser on the spark plugs before unscrewing them and to clean the thread from carbon residues. To screw in the spark plugs, use a torque wrench.

How to reset the TPMS light of the Volkswagen Polo 2011

The orange tire light indicates the presence of one or more tires with an inflation pressure below the recommended limit. All this is easily solved by inflating them correctly or replacing them in the event of a puncture. After carrying out these operations it is necessary to reset the warning light and therefore also the sensor in order to have new reading data. All you have to do is start the car ignition and then fully open the glove compartment on the passenger side. Locate the two buttons in the right corner and press "Set". At this point the reset is complete and you can turn off the ignition.
