Video tutorial

In this video, we can see that the Opel Grandland has introduced a system to limit phone use in the car, combining a flap that covers the device when not in use with two induction charging plates; one main and one secondary, to keep the phone safe and charged.

The stated aim is to reduce the temptation to check notifications while driving.

It’s an intelligent design that integrates aesthetics and function, preventing phones from being left in view, with wireless charging. However, doubts remain.

If the driver knows where the phone is, they might still open it: those who are already disciplined don’t need it; those who are dependent will find ways to bypass it. It’s still an interesting approach, although not revolutionary. Unfortunately, nothing replaces personal discipline.

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.
