That's a good point. The first thing that my son does when he gets in the car (well the second thing, the first is to turn off the lane keeping assist, I've got him well trained!) is to connect to the car's wi-fi, so he might well be using a fair bit of data with whatever he's doing.

Thanks, that's what I hoped, but I've driven quite a bit in the last few days, and I'm still in the land of the unknown!

My MG4 Trophy's weather app was showing a location a few miles away until last weekend. Since then it has just been showing the location as unknown, no matter how many times I refresh the app, and even if I reboot the system! I don't use the weather app in the car much to be honest, but this...

She made it sound like there were so many periodic updates to the car, that its logistically difficult/too fiddly to just let it roll with an "update all" type of process. I have read people mention before that, for each possible update, they have to contact the servers in China, which can at...

I've just dropped my Mg4 off for it's 2nd service. I asked about software updates. They said at the service they do any necessary (recall) updates, but there's none outstanding on my car. As regards other updates, they said there are lots coming out all the time, so it's not practical to install...

Mine is in for its 2nd annual service next week too. Like you I have asked for any software updates that are available, without specifying. Lets compare notes after!

Agreed. The question then is, does my £531 sound like a reasonable premium in these days of silly insurance increases?

Just had my renewal quote for my 72 MG4 from Admiral/Diamond. I'm in my 50s, no previous claims, 26 years no claims bonus. Quote was £531, up 28% from last year's £414. I've shopped around, and the £531 doesn't seem too bad BUT the compulsory excess on the policy is now £400 (up from £60 last...

Or even worse if the wiper motor burns out because the wiper is frosted to the window or stuck in snow!

I agree and I agree that it's an improvement. A couple of times however I've actually had to turn the lights on, when I thought it was needed, and I actually noticed that most cars around me (including some newer models which presumably had auto lights too) had their lights on.

The big button in the middle that sounds the horn :ROFLMAO:! But seriously, I need to know that too. I have a (relatively recently) serviced Trophy, which hopefully has that update.

Same here. Amazon worked ok on our Trophy until some time last year. Since then we can't play any songs or playlists at all, it says something like "song no longer available" and Amazon music then freezes so I have to go through the faff of hitting the car tab and selecting radio.

Yes it worked fine before. I've tried everything apart from uninstalling the app and installing again. I figured that if the app is scanning the car ok, then the app should be ok. Another thing is happening since the new app that I forgot to mention. Before the new app, I plugged the car in...

Since updating to the new version its very temperamental showing me the charging status on the app. For example, its charging now to 80%, I can open the app and it scans the car ok. But when I go on the battery tab to check how the charging is going, it just hangs and says remote control fail...

Mine had PMov instead of Nov, that just appeared all of a sudden. I'm pretty sure that it was showing Nov for the first few days of November at least. The car went in for its first service last week, and they did 3 necessary (their words not mine, I have no idea what they were) software...
