    Quick discharge

    I've read this can happen if you've not balanced the cells in line with the guidance (every week-ish for the SE SR, every month for other variants). Seen stories of people being caught short when their range suddenly drops at lower SoC because they've been consistently charging only to 80% to...

    MG4 doesn't save driving mode!?

    The LKA on my SE only activates when I get above 40mph and then deactivates when I drop below 35mph? Does it operate differently on a Trophy?

    My Ownership Log: MG4 Trophy

    This is pretty standard in basic roadside cover - they'll tow you home or to a repairer if you're more than a certain distance away but if you're at/close to home they'll only fix what they can but won't tow you anywhere. If you get a flat tyre at home, see if you can safely crawl 500m down the...

    Single pedal driving....

    I've also noticed that if you're following a vehicle with ACC on and switch it off, as you approach a junction for instance, the car will decelerate as normal, but will also make sure to maintain the distance to the car in front, until you depress one of the pedals, so if the car ahead slows...

    Tyre repairs

    Funnily enough I had a puncture just this Friday on my MG4. Unfortunately the damage to the tyre was too severe for the repair kit to mend it, but I've used a similar kit on my Hyundai to repair a smaller puncture and it worked a treat - it has it's limits though. Thankfully the AA cover came...

    What's the correct method to charge an M4?

    From what I understand there's no right or wrong way. I tend to unlock the car, plug in, then lock up. I have read elsewhere on here, though, that some people have experienced issues with CCS chargers so the advice there is to shut down the car via the infotainment system before you plug the...

    Scheduled charging stops early

    When you say a "dumb home charger" do you mean a 7kw wall charger that's not got any features other than plug in and switch on, or are you using the granny charger? I'm wondering if it has anything to with the amount of juice the car is able to pull. Does anyone know if the car will suspend a...

    MG4 Range

    Apologies if this has already been covered elsewhere but 2 questions about range that I wonder if people can offer any insight. Has anyone noticed a significant drop in efficiency/range with additional passengers/luggage in the car? Has anyone experimented with which regen setting is most...

    New MG4 Shipment?

    I picked up my MG4 a week ago on Friday and it had the undertray bulge. Both the dealer and MG Customer Support have said that it's not an issue that they will fix under warranty, that it's just a quirk of the vehicle. Not entirely satisfied but I have the vehicle on PCP so at least with the...

    Overnight Granny Charging

    That's great, thanks for that!

    Overnight Granny Charging

    I'm collecting my SE SR on Friday and until I get my Zappi installed I am going to make do with the granny charger to top up. I've already moved over to the Octopus Go tariff which gives me cheaper rates between 12:30am and 4:30am so I want to take advantage of that. My question is, does the...

    Ready ?... for what ?

    My Hyundai Tucson (hybrid) has the same thing, but it's a little green car icon with a two way arrow underneath indicating the car is ready to drive. Stays there except for when you're in accessory mode. I think it's a safety thing with EV/HEVs because they start up with no engine noise, it's...

    New MY23 Changes (wheels/roof/one pedal driving/rear centre headrest & new rear wiper!)

    I'm currently waiting on my SE SR, due end of this month. Is there a way to know if my car will be an MY23 or a previous version? (Apologies if this is a silly question or has been answered elsewhere)
