Before applying the new gasket, it is essential to thoroughly clean the gasket seat, both on the cylinder head side and the manifold side, removing any dirt and/or deposits that could compromise adhesion and sealing. Once cleaned, apply the new gasket (made of metal to withstand high temperatures and the acidity of exhaust gases) aligning it with the dowel pins, then position the manifold and tighten the locking nuts using a torque wrench, following a cross-tightening pattern.

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.
