    Will Caliban start on Monday morning?

    There is the feeling that being left in an underground car park, is a problem, apparently the car will try and contact MG, not being able too, it flattens the battery with repeated attempts.

    Will Caliban start on Monday morning?

    That's where the app could tell you, 14.5v I think is the full charge target, while it's charging.

    Will Caliban start on Monday morning?

    Of course the other alternative is do the 10mm spanner trick

    USB keeps rescanning my files (First EV)

    Strange, my USB stick just plays where it left off last time. Not sure if it makes any difference, but my songs are all in one big file.

    Safety concern - unexpected acceleration

    That's exactly what I did, but look at the angle of your foot, I found that very uncomfortable any pressure is twisting your ankle. I really can't see anybody carrying through with the action, unless they have zero feeling in their ankles and feet. In my younger days, I've done something...

    ZS MK UK Replacement rear discs and pads

    Just checked my rear disks, and it seems I'm in need of taking my own advice. These are over 18months old. I wasn't aware of the regen problem for about 6mths into ownership, some of the pitting could be from back then. But the difference from where the pads rub and don't on the edge of the...

    ZS MK UK Replacement rear discs and pads

    No argument at all, All I'm trying to point out, is that there is something you can do about it. Every now and then use the friction brakes to clear the oxidization. The only thing I'm not clear on is if the ZS is the same as the MG4. With our MG4 in level 1, the brake pedal uses as much regen...

    ZS MK UK Replacement rear discs and pads

    I disagree here, there's a misconception, that the "regen level" set affects the amount of friction brake use. This seems logical, but it's incorrect. Regen level setting only affects how the regen is engaged, either from the accelerator pedal or the brake pedal. Level one makes the accelerator...

    ZS MK UK Replacement rear discs and pads

    It's quite likely all you need to do is use the brake pads on them for a change, and wear the surface rust off. Too much regen, mixed with water can quickly lead to a rusty looking disk. Seems MG UK are aware of this, and try and get you to fork out unnecessarily. There's no regen in neutral...

    Charging at 7.05kW

    I wasn't obsessive, just vary curious, once I knew what's going on I lost a lot of my interest. Same with the PV/battery system. I'm not good with numbers any more, don't remember them long enough for them to be meaningful. Now I just need to know how far we'll be going in the next week or so...

    Safety concern - unexpected acceleration

    No the MG4 seems fine, it takes a real effort to straddle both pedals. your foot is so far over on the brake pedal it want's to twist over. It feels wrong straight away.
