I have and the car is covered. Really appreciate your help.

Good Morning, Ok I went to the car this morning and the charging light had gone off and switched to "ready and maintaining". So I reconnected the terminals and the car is now working normally again. As someone of very limited car knowledge who isn't known for their technical prowess, this...

Yes, I have had two main services at the MG dealer in St Albans, but have no card. Should I just call the AA and see if I'm covered ? I'd like to get this sorted for any future issues.

Good evening everyone, I just thought I'd provide a little update and thank all the great people on this forum. Once I attached both the leads to the correct terminals, the yellow charging light on the battery charger came on. Thanks for that stevebrobin. That was at about 10am this morning...

Ok little update. This morning I disconnected both battery leads and tried to charge, with the negative lead from the charger attached to a part of the car's bodywork as advised. The power light on the charger came on, but no charge button at all. So it looks like I need a new battery. I...

So this is the battery charger I'm using. And these are the bolts I need to disconnect Just want to be sure. Thanks everyone for their help.

What a forum. It is amazing how quickly people respond and so helpful too. I have no idea what the "gunk" is. Its certainly nothing we've done. Car had its most recent service in mid May. When disconnecting the battery I assume you mean I undo the bolts marked in the picture below. And...

Good evening everyone, I last used my first edition MG ZS EV on Wednesday and came to the car tonight, but the car was not responding to my key at all. I thought it must be a problem with the key, so I got my partner's key, which I know had recently had a change of battery, but still the same...

I own a MG ZS first edition model and a Hypervolt charger. I also have an issue with the scheduled overnight charging, which according to Hypervolt is due to the car basically shutting down if you plug in the car too early. For me to get an overnight charge, I have to plug it in as late as...

I have a first edition MG ZS EV and wanted to use the open Tesla superchargers at its Newport location at Celtic Manor yesterday. After finally finding them, I couldn't get the chargers to work. It would say "connected not charging" and then say on the app it could not could not contact the car...

My MG ZS EV which we have used since Aug 2021 now needs its first service as it is close to 15,000 miles. I have a couple of issues that need to be sorted out via the warranty, but one MG dealer has quoted me just short of £160 for the service. I was under the impression that EV servicing was...

I keep having a message flash up saying "Rear Drive Assist Fault Consult Handbook". When I go to the "vehicle settings" then "driving assist" and then the "rear driving assist", as per page 198 of the handbook there is no way of turning the rear driving assist on or off again. Any clues to...

Very impressive, but not sure I want to fall into that wormhole !!!! After last night's charge meter is showing a much more accurate expenditure, so not sure if they have managed to update the software on the smart meter.

I just wanted to provide an update on my Hypervolt install. After feeling that my first quote from the recommended installer of just shy of £835, I was contacted by Hypervolt themselves to see how the process was going and I mentioned that I thought the price was a bit high compared to others...

Thanks for the replies everyone, really amazing how quick you people are at helping out. In reply to some questions, I'm not really a Facebook fan to be honest, not a member and don't really want to join. The quote is from Hypervolt's recommended installer. I was just drawn by the enthusiasm on...
