    MG 5 Towing

    Towing problem sorted. It allowed me to reverse this morning after receiving a warning bleep reversing camera not operating with an abnormal alarm message: The Park Distance Status of your vehicle is abnormal on my MG Electric app. I can live with that.

    MG 5 Towing

    Just had a swan neck tow bar fitted. Fitter said they updated the software for towing, but car unable to go in reverse with trailer attached. Any ideas? Thanks

    Why are motorway services fast chargers so unreliable?

    Why therefore can’t analogue home charger technology be used at motorway services? Just need to link card reader technology to a home charging device.

    Why are motorway services fast chargers so unreliable?

    Yes tried, locking/unlocking. I think my point is that my home charger is 100% reliable, I have never had any charging issues with it at any time, but there is always some issue with a motorway charger. Either the card reader wont work, or the car connects or wont start charging, or finishes...

    Why are motorway services fast chargers so unreliable?

    Stopped off at Gloucetser services yesterday for a top up at 40% to complete my journey. There were only two stations available, however, after trying to connect it was apparent that both were unusable despite telephoning the helpline, who said I had to wait until the left hand charger had...

    MG5 App

    Having just done a journey from Devon to Shropshire I found a warning message for me on the app. Which said there was a problem with my power steering. When I checked the app again it said everything was normal. I didn’t notice any steering problems on my journey. Anyone had this warning message...

    MG5 software upgrade

    I just had my first service and asked for the software upgrade to accept Tesla chargers. Main reason being that on many motorway services there are many Tesla stations available but all other CCS chargers occupied. Do I need to download Tesla app? If so which one? Thanks

    MG5 Front Collision Avoidance

    All I can say is my MG5 made an emergency stop about 1 second before I did following a car on a dual carriageway that had just stopped suddenly and looked like it had missed a turn off to the left. I was looking down on my screen changing radio stations at the time. I’ve never known it stop...

    MG5 PCP Lease ending later this year

    Yes, that's why I'm handing it back and let the leasing company handle the loss. My new MG (2025) is costing me £11K less than the original bought on PCP in 2021.

    MG5 PCP Lease ending later this year

    I had a test drive of the 2024 reg MG5 and felt it was great improvement on my PFL. I am still in negative equity on my PCP agreement with my nearly 4yr old car, so have decided to hand it back. I am now suitably impressed with the reliability of these cars so decided to buy rather than lease.

    MG5 PCP Lease ending later this year

    I'm mainly concerned about rust/corrosion in a 4yr old car. Its kept outside. Body work is fine but unsure of what might be happening underneath? I would also like the option of fitting a towbar which I cant do on the pre-facelift model.

    MG5 PCP Lease ending later this year

    I'm a few months away from either handing my car back or paying £10K to own it. The car has been faultless from new and has only cost me a replacemnet front window in repairs. I would be quite happy to buy it, as it has low mileage 16,000 but have been offered a 2024 Sep reg demonstration MG5...

    Instavolt Chargers failed to connect

    Had a problem connecting to Instavolt charger at Sostice Park yesterday. Tried three times, and it accepted my card and connected, but timed out each time and would not charge. Phoned helpline who said it was a problem sometimes with MG. Then tried another charger and used my Electroverse card...
