Of course, if it did use AC they wouldn't let you turn it off! 😂

I've been recommended an Aircon service for £89 instead of the usual £99 - the message didn't say just what that included though, I'm doubtful it would be regassing, however they did add this "also it helps in the cooling of the high voltage battery on the car, that's why we will highly...

yep, here is mine in June. I spoke to my dealer about it and they just repeated its not covered under warranty and gave me a phone number for MG "Customer Care". Its absolutely not fit for purpose, not even done 25k miles. I've seen somebody, possibly on facebook can't remember, who got a...

Hmm, if a 13A extension lead can't cope with 9-10A continuous surely it's not fit for purpose? I do think there are some scare stories around to make people buy EV special stuff - surely just making sure nothing is getting warm after an hour is a good indication your equipment is fine in the...

Was that RRG? I was paying about that with 3rd service due in a few weeks - when I arranged the service the lady wanted me to sign up to a new plan but then couldn't actually give a price, not got back to me yet, but 25 a month sounds a lot!

be interesting to see whats in there, you have to contact them for the source. I suspect it will be just the changes they have made to any open source software, I'd be surprised if there is anything meaty in there.

just piggybacking on this - do you know if the 360 camera calibration data is held in the FICM, I'm guessing so? My calibration/stitching has been a bit skewed since my FICM was replaced nearly 12 months ago. I've asked them to take a look when it goes in for service in a few weeks, hoping they...

I experienced this ACC dropout several times over the past weekend - on the motorway it would be active for quite a while then just turn off with no notice, I mean it could at least bong and flash something at me. I don't recall anything out of the ordinary when it dropped out, just in a lane...

oh how does anybody decide which tyres to get :ROFLMAO: My original Continentals are approaching 24k miles and down to about 3mm at the back, 2mm at the front so maybe good to start looking ready for the winter, not had all seasons before though. Conti All Season Contact 2 coming out at £527...

interesting thread! Whats peoples thoughts about not having a spare tyre when touring in Europe? I'm thinking about driving down to spain next year and an earlier comment about the lack of a spare rung a concerning bell in my mind :D I assume MG Assist with the AA only covers the UK (or country...

Yeah that's what I meant. Yesterday we had a phone that was going to take hours to charge from a power bank, I rotated the USB-C 180 degrees and it was now fast charging in an hour, so always worth a try.

have you tried another cable or even the same cable inserted the other way around (if its USBC)? I had a cable that would often disconnect after 10 minutes, or sometimes not respond to screen touches, but a different cable fixed all those problems. The only issue I get now is if the fluff has...

I had my FICM (infotainment control module) replaced a few months back and this seems to have coincided with my 360 camera being a bit rubbish since - does anyone know if the calibration is stored in there and the dealer didn't bother to calibrate the camera?? It certainly used to be better...

what I don't get about this security issue is the star button A/C mini menu is allowed to draw over AA - not sure how that is different to the pull down menu?? Maybe its AA stops the swipe gesture being recognised by the MG software?

I had a play with the new version yesterday and LKA was certainly less intrusive (although I've never found it bad enough to turn off every drive), almost not noticeable but it did bring the car back in lane as I drifted - I'm not sure if it will be enough to correct a more significant drift...
