John. Just to clarify, is the USB stick connected to the right hand socket? Only I thought that socket was for charging the phone. Also, could you tell me the make/model of the carplay adapter you are using, and will it work with my android phone? Cheers

My satnav drives me mad with continually recalculating! Even driving into my own avenue it has, occasionally, recalculated. Today, however, the same fault as yours showed up. My previous location wouldn't shift to allow me to input a new route. I had to drive a couple of miles before 'it' gave...

Hi Clive. Can't honestly tell you. I did try to connect my android phone when I got the car last year, but after a few dismal failures I gave up. Never bothered since, so I'm not sure if I am or not. aitch

I drive a MG3 Hybrid. Is there a huge difference in your hybrid and mine? Reason for asking is my service plan for 3 years including mot is £756.00. aitch

I wonder what that means with our 3 driving modes?

Thanks for that, I've wanted to know since I got the car. 👍

One of the really great 'extras' on the MG3 is the fact that I don't need to even think about handbrakes. The extra push on the brake is all that's needed, or a light touch if in slow moving traffic. What a marvellous invention! I suppose I could add how effortless it is to cruise along in EV...

Hi Keith. I had a similar problem back in August and tracked the correct tyres at Asda, of all people, fitted £75.75. Never actually tried to buy them, but maybe it's another source for you to try. Best of luck, mate. Aitch Who knew Asda did tyres?. Try this, Keith

I think you're right, stasko, about this car being a one-off. You do need to persevere with its odd little ways and get used to driving it. It's my first hybrid, although I've had many new cars, business and personal. Thankfully I've not had any major issues and I feel sorry for those that have...

I am also just into my 12th month of ownership. MPG over 5435 miles is 52mpg, winter showing as 44 and spring as 59mpg. So, well pleased with that, especially as I've had periods where I've clocked 78 and 75mpg. I've also noticed I'm in EV mode quite often during these warmer months. I've had no...

About an hour after we arrived home the car alarm was triggered. On checking I found I had left one of the rear doors on the first latch only. I unlocked the car, shut the door properly and locked up. All fine. I've now received a text message saying 'the abnormal invasion into your vehicle has...

Thanks Jim, I'll try that. Aitch

Hi Jim. The link you provided took me to an Ebay page chock full of different offerings of paint. When entered my reg nothing happened except to Buy Now or Add to Basket. Any more help you can give? My car is also in Dynamic Red, with the protection coat finish. Aitch

Clive, why do you say 'too long on auto hold'? Is there a time limit? I've not seen any comments about this before. I use auto hold all the time, unless I'm actually parked up for a good few minutes. Aitch

Hi Ian. You can still part ex your car. If the equity on your car is greater than what you owe it will go towards your deposit. If not you need to weigh up the loss against how much the dealer offers you. You will find the dealer will do all the financial side of it. Also try 'We Buy Any Car'...
