First, remove the front wheel using the appropriate spanner. Loosen the wheel bolts while the vehicle is resting on the ground.

Then, lift the vehicle with a jack and remove the wheel. Now, remove the brake caliper cover.

To do this, unscrew the two bolts (using the appropriate spanner) and, after prying with a screwdriver, extract the caliper cover. At this point, the two brake pads are visible.

You can manually remove them from their housing. Now, assess the thickness of the brake disc, which should not be below a certain value for safe driving.

End of part I. This operation is performed on a Nissan Pathfinder.

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.
