In this video, we see how to change the knob of a Volkswagen Polo with automatic transmission: at first glance it seems impossible to change it, used as we are to those of cars with manual transmission, but in reality it is just as easy. In fact, under the knob, there is a sort of metal ring that can be rotated.

Once we have turned this, we can also turn the knob of the gear lever, which can be changed just like that of a manual transmission. We can find the spare part for example on AliBaba with the code 1600365263627 at the price of 25.71 euros + 7.36 euros for shipping.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
