Not sure, but the app allowed me to setup the digital key, this was before I knew it wasn’t my car. Also if they had already blinded to a phone I shouldn’t have been able to bind my phone Also the digital key doesn’t work with my car

VINs are completely different. Wondered whether the scan of the very small QR code messed up, and read some data wrong or it’s all down to app issues. But I cant unbind now without MGs help

So, my app works fine….. only it’s not connected to my car! but to a car located about 30 miles from me. I’ve deleted and re-installed the app, tried to unbind, but that just fails after entering the code. I can see the other cars VIN is different to mine as shown in the app, but other details...

So. this morning the app has finally started to talk to the car. The problem is it’s not MY CAR ! My car is currently parked at the school where my wife works with 30% battery. However the car on the App is in a shopping center 10 miles away with a range of 136 miles. This is worrying as I...

IOS - Updated the app, re-binded, no problem. App loads OK, Serial number matches the car. BUT NOTHING WORKS. Every request fails with a time-out. Have fully shut down the car thru the safety menu and brought it back up, deleted the app and started again, cleared the cache, but still cant talk...

If charging during the day on Eco, and then I decide to STOP the charge because the PV power is less than 1.4KW, so pulling from grid. When the sun comes back out and I move the Zappi back to ECO, I get CHARGE DELAYED. No charging will start from this point. The cable needs to be disconnected...

Hi, I've had the MG4 and a Zappi since last october, also I have solar, So I never set any scheduled charging in the car, it's all done by the Zappi, which opens a charging window between 2am-9am. The Zappi has to be set to eco+ if you only want to charge in the cheap rate. I plug the car in in...

Hmm, I spoke to soon…. Radio froze today, but that the first time in a week rather than daily and no issues with the screen auto scrolling. So some progress at least

I’ve had issues with DAB freezing since getting the car in October. Last week it went in for a replacement screen and control module….. That didn’t fix it! Then got a call from the dealer saying there was an update available, had that loaded and so far 6 days, no issue with the radio. Also the...

So, 10,000 MG4 miles done with Zappi. My method... Don't set a schedule in the car! Set a timed boost in the zappi app/main unit for your cheap rate. I just set from 1am - 8am Make sure your zappi mode is set to ECO+, note after a firmware update it will default back to FAST In the car/app set...

My dealer S Logan and Son in Belfast has been great

Also in Ireland with 8500 miles done. One of the first batch of dealer cars in October. So putting aside how good EVs are anyway, the car has been great. But does suffer from the common problems Infotainment screen flipping, doesn't happen often though, can be cured with reset in settings DAB...

So Les, do you think when the car seemly randomly changes my setting of 80% to 100%, which I thought was a bug. It's actually an indication that the car wants to get to 100% so it can balance the cells? From now on I'm going to set the zappi timed boost window to 7 hours, and just let the car...

I typically set the charge to 80% on the infotainment screen. But have noticed it has a habit of changing itself to 100%. Not sure if this is a bug or something to do with wanting to cell balance. Also last night, did a timed ECO+ charge with plenty of time to let it get to 100%. As you can see...

That’s how I’ve been charging the car since Oct. I set up a 6 hour window, car gets to 100% in say 3 hours. And all charging stops, there is no current supplied for cell balancing. See my first post. I’m going to try charge to 100%, drive round the block in the morning, back on to FAST charge...
