    MG5 FL (MY24) manual speed limiter - how to?

    MG5 FL (MY24) manual speed limiter - how to? I'm new to the MG5 EV (FL) - I previously had an MG4 EV - on which I used the (manual) speed limiter just fine. Now I want to use the manual speed limiter on the MG5. But I can't enable it - on the Infotainment Vehicle screen I went to MG Pilot...

    Does black badge sticker removal cause damage?

    Hi all, I am looking to put the black badges over the chrome ones on the MGS5. The car is a work car and I want to make sure that when it does go back they can be removed without any damage to the original bages? Has anyone done this? I have tried to find the answer elsewhere but haven't...

    For Sale Winter Wheels

    Perhaps day or two late but as these won’t fit my S5, they need to go to make space in the garage. The tyres are like new and have only been used for one season but the alloys were secondhand and have a few marks and scuffs but do the job. I’m in north Birmingham for collection or I can...

    MG5 new recall

    I just booked in our MG5 Trophy (face-lift) for its first service. They said there's also an outstanding recall for a software update. She said it's to do with the dashboard emojis symbols on the dashboard: When starting up the car, they should flash up, but some users have reported they don't...

    Interesting Pod Point charging failure (and fix)

    So, woke up this morning to find a red light on the Pod Point charger and the car at 82% rather than the 100% I had set it to. Reset the car and tried again. It connected for about 30seconds and then errored again. Reset the Pod Point by turning it off at the isolator and back on again - same...

    MG5 SW 2022 chargin issues

    I bought this year last year, so for me new and my first electric. Ever since I've had it won't charge on the super fast chargers higher than 40kwh.

    A cautionary tale

    Mary (not her real name), started her MG5 to hit the sales in town, but just before driving off she realised her purse was missing. She got back into the house, dropped her keys on the counter, went upstairs to get her money and off she went. It’s only when the car refused to start coming home...

    Have MG sorted out the MG4 yet?

    Hi, I’m looking to take some test drives in the new year for the MG5, the MG4 and the Model 3. Head says MG5 but I do find it a bit…fugly. I’m sure the Model 3 is a great car but I’m honestly put off by the image and also worry that Tesla could implode if the tech bubble had a sharp...

    Granny Charger Power

    My MG OEM granny charger came from my MG5 where as I recall it used to input nearly 3 KW. I am now using it on my S6 and it only does between 1.9 and 2.1 KW. Has any one else got better charging rates or is this an S5 thing? Perhaps not all granny chargers are the same?

    MG5 Retrofitted Rear Interior Light

    Finally got around to fitting another MG HS parts bin upgrade to my PFL. Thought I'd do a step by step as the rear interior light question is often asked.

    Disabling auto window open 'feature'

    Hi, I've had all the windows open on my PFL MG5 overnight - once when it was raining quite heavily. It's only happened a few times but worrying in the winter! I know it's a 'feature' but one I'm prepared to live without. Does anybody know if there is any way to disable this function before I...
