Video tutorial

The video illustrates how to remove the oil filter. After carefully checking the engine oil level (pull out the dipstick, clean it with a soft absorbent cloth, reinsert it and slowly push it down until it locks, then pull it out again to check the oil level).

After verifying the oil level, use an Allen key to remove the filter block. You will notice that the old filter is dirty.

Once the old filter is removed, install the new one (the new filter must be identical to the old one; otherwise, it will be impossible to refit) and secure it. Refill the oil and test the car.

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.
