    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    Definitely the MG5? I only ask because I know the ZS had some sort of issue with steering columns being replaced. Don’t think it was this same problem though.

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    Interesting that yours is a facelift, I think myself and others here all have the pre-facelift. And yes I think it’s something to do with the lane assist, or something certainly electrical related rather than tyres or something mechanical. All this week as well I’ve not had the issue once...

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    So just thought I’d drop an update. A few journeys recently and problem is still there. I’m starting to think that the issue isn’t mechanical and more electronic though. I have noticed on a couple of journeys when I’ve driven for a bit and then parked up the return journey I don’t get the...

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    I might need to try this, all spring/summer my pressures were higher and I didn’t notice it. New front tyres in the summer and the garage left them at 2.5 and then I didn’t bother adjusting them till a month or so ago. But up until the last few weeks everything has been fine. Maybe it’s not a...

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    I’m not convinced it’s tyres either. Mines been doing it all week going to work and back. It’s very odd and very annoying. Mines also developed what I can only describe as a faint rattle/static noise from the dash. Only there when I’m driving and doesn’t get louder or change with speed or road...

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    No got no lane assist on, not even the alert. Interestingly I feel like the wheel behaves like it does when you’re using the pilot mode and it self steers. It’s very odd

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    I’ve experienced it at lower speeds, just on a normal 30 road. Mine is a 22 plate LR with 26k miles on

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    Just to chime back in on this I was out yesterday only local and didn’t notice the problem at all. I guess possible that it is longer journeys and the tyres warming but I never noticed any issues in the summer when my tyre pressures were always around 2.4 or higher so really not sure.

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    I’m on some hankook something or other on the fronts. No issues whatsoever in the summer though, I’ve only noticed it really this week. It has been cold all week though so really not sure if that’s got anything to do with it along with tyre pressure perhaps

    New owner, few questions

    Hi, sorry I’ve only just seen your message. So after it was cleaned it was still happening. The dealer were going to contact MG directly and get back to me and surprise surprise I never heard anything back. Over the summer though it had pretty much stopped. I do still notice now some flecks here...

    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    Hi all, came here because I’m having this same issue at the moment. Steering seems to have gone notchy for lack of a better word. Going straight and steering feels locked and needs more pressure than usual to move the wheel. Had new front tyres back in July. Unsure if it’s a problem to be...

    Just an update on this for anyone following. Car has been in today and they agree it’s coming from the evaporator. They weren’t overly concerned and want to try cleaning it first. I suspect this will be one of those cans of foam they put in through the drain port. I’ll let them try that first...

    Car booked in start of April for MG to take a look I’ve attached some pics where you can see the powder in the vents. Worst in these side ones for the windows but does come out of all of them.

    I’ve got an invoice that just states interim service but doesn’t detail what was done. Car will be 2 years old in April so I’ll put it into MG to be done. Will ask them to check these white bits too if it’s still doing it by then

    1 service done in November at 15k miles. It’s comes from Cinch who did the service and it’s just listed as an interim service. Doesn’t go into detail what’s been done.
