Removing the rear wiper motor? Here’s how to do it on a Golf 5. Lift the boot of the luggage compartment and remove the plastic cover beneath the rear window. Use a socket spanner to detach the rear wiper arm. Once removed, unscrew the central pin of the wiper motor.

Replace the part you removed with a new original one. Refit the wiper motor, tighten the securing screws, and replace the plastic covers. Install a new rear wiper blade.

Test the operation of the wiper and the motor.

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.
