    Would you buy an MG5 with 7 MOTs before it was 3 years old?

    I've just been looking for MG EVs and I've found an MG5 registered June 2022 with multiple MOT entries on the gov.uk website starting from Oct 2022, five months from new registration. But there's more (below). How can this be? I thought maybe it was a taxi but they still have first test at 3...

    LV/12V electrical system

    Afternoon all. Is there anyone around in here who has reasonable knowledge of the 12V system on the MG5? What I am looking to do is to possibly use a smart relay to charge a second 12V battery to run some "other equipment" when the vehicle may be shut down. Thanks in advance Piggly

    I purchased a 2022, low mileage MG5 on Saturday 11 October. After only a few days' use, the electric motor cut out without warning immediately after I had pulled out of my drive onto the road, with the dash displaying the message "Motor fault". After maybe 10 seconds this message changed to...

    How hard can it be to get a new 12v battery fitted?

    Harder than it used to be, it seems! I went to my local Halfords store, as I could get free fitting. All ordered and booked, no problem. Then when they saw the car they said they're not allowed to work electric cars, as they have to be specially trained, because they're interfering with...

    Reduction Gearbox Oil Notes

    Reduction gearbox oil seems to be an illusive topic on the MG5. Mine wasn't changed at the 4th year service, even after specifically asking for it. Several other posts suggest dealers often don't change it. Allegedly, it should be done after 4years/60k miles. The reduction gearbox seems to have...
