ZX Auto was one of those early Chinese brands that came and went without making much of an impact here. Imported by a WA-based dealership mogul, the brand entered Australia in 2012 and was gone before the end of 2015 when the Chinese factory stopped producing right-hand-drive cars. Not to mention the fact that pretty much nobody here was interested in the product.
Which means finding spare parts now can be a bit problematic. However, I did find a couple of local suppliers online who had clutch kits for this make and model for sale, so they are out there. Don’t forget, too, that the Grand Tiger used either a Toyota-derived turbo-diesel engine or a Mitsubishi-designed four-cylinder petrol and five-speed transmission. The latter was also used in the Great Wall V240 range, so you might find that there’s interchangeability between the ZX and those 'donor' vehicles. It’s hard to imagine that ZX would have licensed a design from either Toyota or Mitsubishi and then changed the clutch design.
In your case, I’d say you need to find out which Toyotas used the engine design shared with the ZX and work from there. From what I can gather, the engine code was DK4B and it was also used in a variety of Toyota light commercial vehicles.
You would have to think it’s telling you there is a problem with the airbag. What it might be is anybody’s guess until it’s checked. Get it checked out and fixed, as it might not deploy in a crash.
It's always best to do your homework BEFORE buying, particularly when the vehicle you're buying is an unknown quantity with little or no history here in this country. That homework could include talking to a dealer mechanic and getting the inside story.
