After the yellow engine malfunction light comes on and a diagnosis through the OBD port confirms that the problem is due to the airflow meter, we proceed with its cleaning. We open the engine hood, release the clips that hold the air filter cover and remove it, unscrew the three screws that secure the filter box body, disconnect the electrical connector and remove the rest of the filter box. We unscrew the two screws that secure the sensor on the right side of the air intake, clean it using low-pressure compressed air and a specific spray cleaner, dry it well and reassemble the sensor, the filter box and reconnect the connector.

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.
