Video tutorial

Let's see in this video how to remove the front bumper from a Subaru Forester. Lift the bonnet and secure it. Use a plastic lever to remove the securing rivets located at the top of the bumper.

Once the rivets at the top are removed, unscrew the rivets in the wheel arch liners and finally remove the pins located at the bottom of the bumper. Remove the bumper from the front of the car by hand.

To proceed with the installation, fix the bumper onto the body of the vehicle and tighten all screws around the wheel arch liners and the perimeter.

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.
