Today's step-by-step instructions will show us how to disassemble and replace the rear headlight bulbs of the Volkswagen Golf. First, we open the rear trunk door and start removing the side interior lining; then we unscrew the plastic nuts of the headlight to detach and remove it, also disconnecting the electrical connector of the bulbs, as shown in the video.

At this point, we remove the headlight from the outside, replacing the brake lights; we remove the plastic cover of the inner panel to access the other lights, replacing them if necessary!

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.
