The operation of replacing the fuel filter must be done every 2 years or 40,000 km on the Renault Kangoo II: we open the hood and disconnect the electrical connector of the filter heater. The two fuel lines are fixed with snap connectors.

To release them, we press the two green tabs on each side simultaneously and pull the tube upwards. We apply a bit of tape on the opening of each tube to prevent dirt from getting in. We unscrew the 10 mm nut, pull up the entire box to remove it, open the cover; the filter is held in place by a threaded pin. We screw the new screw into the pin and, placing the box on a flat surface, give it a sharp blow to remove it from its seat.

We insert the new filter and reassemble everything. We put the box back in place, reconnect the outlet tube, turn on the instrument panel to activate the fuel pump and wait for it to fill the filter and come out of the inlet tube connection, thus purging the air: only now can we reconnect the inlet tube.

We clean up the spilled fuel and start the engine, letting it run at idle for a few minutes.

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.
