In this short video, you will find instructions to remove the rear tailgate panel on the Volkswagen Polo 6R, fifth series. First, open the rear tailgate of the boot and start by unscrewing the screws found inside the grab handles, using a Torx T25 key or screwdriver; then lever the sides of the panel to unclip it from the rear plastic clips, as shown in the video.

At this point, you will have access to the boot locking mechanism; for reassembly, simply reverse the procedure!

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.
