    Front view camera port steamed up causing loss of function of all camera safety features

    I think similar happened to me on Sunday after about 90mins of driving. I thought it was just dirt on the windscreen as it was snowing a bit, and lots of spray coming up from the road. Warnings cleared after about 15mins. I did notice the car was getting a bit steamy inside (despite aircon...

    Does ECO mode really impact the available distance ?

    Might as well ask this question here: Tomorrow lunchtime, I'm doing approx 150mile motorway journey. Temperature will be around 0 degrees. Current battery SoC is about 90%. Should I charge up to 100% tonight, or is there any benefit in waiting until about 2hrs before I set off tomorrow on my...

    Worst car I've ever had

    "Less than 200 mile range despite being "Long Range" . " - I get plenty more than 200mile range. Your driving style and weather will impact stated estimated range, much like it does in an ICE car. "Needing to complete a three stage routine to turn off lane change detection EVERY TIME I DRIVE!!"...

    Charged a fee for software updates? (MG4)

    What interface and what subscription are you talking about?

    Light sensitivity fixed following service

    If you drive into an unlit tunnel, you can manually flick on your headlights in less than a second. Like people did for decades before auto-lights became a thing. Pitch black unlit tunnels are complete edge case. Driving under a motorway fly-over bridge for a few seconds on a cloudy day...

    Lane Assist Trying To Kill Me!

    Because "work properly" is subjective, and as far as MG are concerned, it does work properly. This update will "enhance" it, whatever that means. No system like this will be 100%, so this might just be an incremental improvement. Maybe the line recognition will be improved, or maybe the force...

    The MG4 SE 1100R33 Infotainment Thread

    Because dealerships like money. It's not exclusive to MG dealers or EVs. Less things to check means less money. Less things to go wrong means less money. They want money. Once the car is outside warranty, then feel free to take it to someone who's going to charge 50 quid to do a 10minute...

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    That's the latest Infotainment version. "Latest software" is meaningless as there's lots of different pieces of software. @SueH You probably won't get anything unless you've asked/complained about issues that affect the Infotainment - eg Bluetooth unpairing, radio favourites not saving, etc...

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    Presumably (looking at your directory tree image above), background wallpapers and fonts can be changed too.

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    If the brake pedal needed to be depressed to wake the car up, would they then have to get out and move over to the passenger seat to continue?

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    .......so, who will be the first person brave enough to install? :ROFLMAO: checksoc.txt indicates that the file is R46: SWI68-29958-1300R46 @BobbyBrown can you confirm that your vehicle has R46 (not R59)?

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    Yes, please do. Just from a technical point of view, I'm interested to see how the process works, and what coding language etc is used. It might be beneficial for tools such as OBD11 to be developed for compatibility with MGs, or other 3rd-party tools for analysing battery use/health, or driving...

    Are the facelift cars better?

    MY22/"Phase 1"/Pre-facelift cars in top trim level (Exclusive/Trophy) have heated seats too, at least in UK/Ireland. Maybe the EU ones didn't, but I'd be very surprised if they didn't. MY22/pre-facelift come with 11KW, 3-phase AC charging, which can be handy depending on your circumstances...

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    Multiple confirmations of it being there for people on R59. It's on the swipe-down menu on the homescreen. Or at least it is for other people on R59... On home screen, swipe down the top-left corner to see the quick launch options. One of them should be "ELK Disable" or "LKA Disable" or "LKA...
