Video tutorial

The spark plug replacement procedure described in this video pertains to the 1.2 petrol 3-cylinder engine, and the same process applies to other Volkswagen group vehicles with a similar engine. Start by removing the engine cover, then disconnect the coil connectors (it is not necessary to remove them completely, just ensure there is enough slack in the cables) to extract them.

Insert the 16 mm spark plug socket with the rubber insert that holds the spark plug; unscrew it while keeping the socket straight and extract the old plugs. Prepare the new plugs (you can find a kit of 3 NGK on Amazon with code B01BLN7B0G for £27.00 with free delivery) and insert them into the well, hand-tighten to avoid cross-threading, and then tighten with a torque wrench to 28 Nm. Refit the coils, reconnect the connectors, and press the engine cover back into place.

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.
