Once the rear seat base is removed (it is simply clipped in, just pull it upwards to detach it), you can access the mounting pins of the backrests: unscrew the pins along the lower edge, pull the backrest forward, and press it upwards to remove it from its location.

The side panel trim is secured with pressure clips along the edges: lever them out to detach and remove the panel; also unscrew the seatbelt guide.

Proceed to disassemble the inner panel, where the speaker is located, and then unscrew the mounting pins of the glass holder (you will need to adjust the height of the glass to align the aforementioned pins with the access holes). Finally, disassemble the window regulator system and place it on the bench for adjustments.

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.
