Ahhh, that's a good spot. I am far from a car expert and didn't realise that car struts included the springs. Thanks for the information.

I have had a look at the warranty, and I cannot find an exclusion for the springs. I currently believe that they are covered for 7 years / 80,000 miles. Interesting that both rear springs were recorded as broken during the same annual service but that doesn't mean they failed at the same time...

I have just had to replace both rear springs on my 44k miles/22 plate ZSEV facelift as picked up on MOT. Didn't have much choice and even less time to sort out. Are these a warranty item?

Thank you, @T1 Terry, for your advice. I removed the plastic cover on the inside, under the bonnet, and squirted some lubricant. Initially, that didn't work, so I thought I'd phone MG Assistance for their advice. [As an aside, when I phoned MG Assistance, I was told that my cover had expired...

Yes, I did that. I am going to leave it charging for 24 hrs to make sure it get a full charge.

That only releases the charging cable it doesn’t open the charging flap. I am wondering whether the 12 volt battery may need a charge. I’ll connect up a battery charger and give it a good charge over the weekend.

Hello All, The charging flap on my ZS EV 'facelift' won't open. I am very used to how the flap locks and unlocks as the car locks and unlocks and I cannot hear the short 'zip' noise emanating from the flap lock that I am familiar with when I lock/unlock the car. I am reasonably confident that...

I would be interested to hear whether or not your charge is successful.

Interestingly, I charged numerous times using Tesla Superchargers using the app. I went to do it today and the app requested to enter my car details, which had been added previously, but I can no longer find MG in the drop down list. This has changed in the last 2 - 3 months

Drive MG Weston-Super-Mare serviced my 2022 MG ZS EV today. It was the three-year service and cost £123.60.I booked a courtesy car at an extra cost of £19.00. All very straightforward with no dramas. They did the normal healthcare check and sent a video. Nothing to report, apart from the OSF...

Gosh, that was 2-years ago. No it wasn’t sorted and I have simply become used to the very poor quality of the vehicle. I’ll eventually get shot of it and buy a production quality vehicle and not a beta demo sample 🤣

Oh, lovely bit of kit 👍

It happens very occasionally when flying and it does make a right clonk, even taking the windshield out is not unheard of. It certainly wakes you up when flying several tonnes of metal at 200 mph several thousand ft up 😳😱😲 It always leaves me with a feeling of guilt having invaded their space...

😢

Yes, exactly that. I think you’re right, it is an intermittent software error, which has escaped the MG quality assurance process.
