Well I am amazed at this talk of R40, R46, R59, my Dealer says that the latest software for my Trophy is R33 which was installed May last year and that's it. I complained about the heater icons being to small but apparently what I have is all there is! I am buggered if I know. Where do I go from...

I used the V2L and monitored it, found the car used so much power to convert the DC from the battery to AC for the home that at the end of the day there was almost no saving, even having charged the car on Octopus GO at 9p per kWh my power bill for February was almost the same as last year...

This is all very confusing! My Trophy was serviced last week and some software was upgraded but the thing I wanted upgraded the most was the heater controls which have come back the same. The software number is still R33. Should it have been R46 and does it include the larger heater icons?

Why?

I have just had my first service and I had expected the software to be updated but my disappointment my heater controls have not changed and I discover that I am still on R33. Should this have been upgraded to R46, which I believe includes the bigger heater control icons. As an update the...

So, to be clear, you are happy to let the ACC with all it’s driveability faults (see comments above) take control of the vehicle while you do something else? I like to think that I am in control of the vehicle at all times and I have never allowed cars with conventional cruise control to drive...

My dealer has said it is only done if MG says it is necessary, so it might not get done!!! It may be time to change the dealer!

My MG Dealer says that I am up to date as of June last year. My software is R33 Unless of course, anyone knows different !!

I have absolutely no idea which software have, it is bliss being BBT (born before technology)

Oh! Thats much better, mine does not look anything like that. My Trophy is just due it's first service so it should be done then. It looks like your Trophy was in the the same batch as mine. Thanks for that

Do others find the heater controls too small when there is a lovely picture of the dash taking up the whole screen. There appears to be loads of room available for bigger icons or is it just that I have banana fingers that I find it difficult to access the icons!

How much power does the battery heater use. Will it work whilst on the charger and does it enhance the miles per kw on a cold day. Aproximately how long does it take if the overnight temp drops to 0 degrees to raise the battery temperature before before use.

Back in the day (pre EV) TPMS was achieved by monitoring the ABS sensors which were referencing wheel rotation, if a tyre was underinflated it would rotate at slightly different rate than the others so the tyre causing the problem could be identified. It would not take much to calibrate the...

So fundamentally none of you know!

My drivers door window went fully down on the Trophy when the 12v battery went flat, I assumed this was a planned occurrence to allow access to the car if the 12v battery discharges below a certain voltage (I had left the car for 8 days). The dealer said it was a software fault and downloaded a...
