Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to perform a full service on a 2017 Toyota Yaris: first, lift it off the ground, always using a jack. Remove the oil filler cap, placing a container underneath to catch the used oil (which you will dispose of at an authorised centre).

When replacing the cap, always remember to change the gasket; now also replace the filter (which is next to it), keeping the container underneath. Fit the new one in place, lubricating the gasket.

Replace the air filter (from the top) and next to it are the spark plugs; remove them carefully to avoid dropping them into their housing. Refit the filter cover.

Refill the engine oil through the top cap. It is acceptable for the level to be slightly above maximum as the filter will also need to fill. Check the coolant and top it up if necessary, check the windscreen washer fluid, the pollen filter, and the tyre pressure.

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.
