    One pedal driving

    Thank you for the pointer - picking my MY23 up on Friday morning - found on Auto Trader - my preferred colour - Affinity discount applied. Now - any advice on how to explain to Mrs C - Will she notice my 🚙 is now 🚗?

    One pedal driving

    Thank You for the confirmation videos - I’m ready to buy - Do dealers have the new Model Year 23 ready for sale yet in the United Kingdom? - or - is this something I have to order - and if so, do I need to be specific that I want the refreshed Trophy version - as I assume there will be existing...

    One pedal driving

    MG's recent announcement regarding the introduction of the one-pedal driving feature has certainly captured my attention. However, I noticed this functionality is only being publicized for the upcoming X-Power variant of the MG4, and there's no mention of it in the existing models. This leads me...

    Windscreen module (rain sensor gubbins etc). Has anyone removed its cover?

    Sorry no - but these covers are designed to be removed - I have done this on most of the cars I have owned - for one reason or another. As mentioned, MG4 seems to be more sturdy than most I have had to deal with and I could imagine that the 5 would be similar - but with a little trial and...

    Windscreen module (rain sensor gubbins etc). Has anyone removed its cover?

    I have managed it - couple of reasons - one is OCD - I wanted to thread the three wires for my dash cam (power, rear camera connector and GPS module) - through the gap for the mirror rather than sticking out through the headliner. 2nd - to secure the mount with car grips to the shroud cover, as...

    Cell balancing on LR MG4 with Zappi

    My Zappi charges to 100% then stops - there appears to be no battery cell balancing. However, when I use my Ohme (to take advantage of Intelligent Octopus rates) - as we did this morning - then there is a period of Battery Cell Balancing that appears to take place at the end of the charge - as...

    Vehicle to Load (V2L) - Any Information or First Hand Experiences?

    Apologies Susanna - I did not appreciate that - I have no experience with the Electric ZS - perhaps they will update eventually and offer the same functionality as the MG4.

    Vehicle to Load (V2L) - Any Information or First Hand Experiences?

    One thing to note / perhaps check - does your car recognize a discharge cable has been plugged in - a blue symbol - on the driver screen in front of the steering wheel - it might be that your car does not recognize that a discharge cable is being used.

    Vehicle to Load (V2L) - Any Information or First Hand Experiences?

    I run mine no problem - just set to ‘discharge’ in the car infotainment menu - lock the charge port (again from the infotainment menu) - get out and lock the car - no need to leave the car in ready mode - mine is on the drive - so I would not want to do that.

    Vehicle to Load (V2L) - Any Information or First Hand Experiences?

    We bought a commando socket version from EV Cables Ltd for our MG4 SE SR ; married through the wall to a double 3 pin socket (so we do not have to run the cable through an open window). We have just done the Saturday morning wash (40 degrees) and the wash load is now in the tumble dryer for 80...

    Vehicle to Load (V2L) - Any Information or First Hand Experiences?

    I have set mine up with Commando socket lead - reason being - if (perhaps when) - we have blackouts (in my case I am requested to cut down utilization by my supplier earlier this year - this was part an experiment to see what power usage could be turned down. We have been approached again to...

    MG4 Carplay RHD Setting?

    I have my new MG4 - everything is perfect - sorted out all the pings and bongs to my liking - and I could not be happier. However - CarPlay on my infotainment display is shown in LHD format (menu on the passenger side). On my previous MG ZS it was always on the RHD side - making it closer to...

    MG4 Insurance Issues

    For insurance purposes - does anyone know if the new MG4 has a ‘tracker’. I thought that maybe - with iSmart - it might.
