Is the front bumper of your New Beetle broken? Do you want to replace it? Start by lifting the front bonnet, then unscrew the retaining screws located at the top of the bumper. Once the screws are removed, take off the front lights by unscrewing the screws inside the right and left wheel arch liners (lift the car on a column lift).

After removing all the screws, detach the bumper from all its parts. Disconnect the connectors of the indicator lights.

Fit the new bumper starting from where you finished, connecting the electrical connectors.

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.
