To know when your Peugeot 3008 (and also the C5) is undergoing DPF regeneration, you can connect an LED to the external rearview mirror with a small soldering job at the output of the mirror heater. By connecting it to this component, which is on the same line as the DPF, when regeneration is taking place, the LED will light up, indicating that you should not stop, otherwise, you will interrupt the process and damage the system.

This will help keep the filter clean and avoid circulation problems.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
