To carry out this maintenance quickly and conveniently, lift the vehicle on a lift; alternatively, it may be sufficient to raise it on suitable axle stands. In any case, once you reach the oil sump, unscrew the oil drain plug while positioning a container to collect the used oil (keep the container as close as possible to the plug as the oil exits with considerable force).

Once the draining is complete, clean the plug thoroughly, removing any metallic residues, and screw it back in, securing it with a torque wrench. If the oil filter has already been replaced in the previous maintenance, it can be skipped, but given the low cost, it is recommended to replace it at every oil change.

Finally, fill the engine with new oil until the maximum level is reached.

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.
