Yup, same. Dust or other residue in the cabin heater or ventilation ducts. Goes away after a couple of months. MG’s version of of the new car smell…? 🤔

It’ll be the use cases surrounding the charging type. If you’re frequent DC fast charging you’re likely doing longer trips and only charging to 80% and not stressing the high end battery capacity. If you’re frequent home charging you’re likely topping up and staying in that high 80% to 100%...

It’s a bit concerning how many people are driving around in potential death traps without reading the manual, or at the very least those chapters that describe the behaviour and limitations of the driver assist features. Please, these are not autonomous vehicles.

Interesting at 1m40s “MG told us it can’t be done - it needs to be coded in…”. Either MG don’t know their own cars or deliberate misinformation from them. Not a good look either way.

Yay, 408km potential range today. Not bad for in and around Hobart.👍

I’ve had my SR Mk2 up to 399km on the GOM but struggling to get over. Looks like a display or calculation limit. Anyone been over this?

Thought I'd share this as it looks really interesting. What Really happens to used Electric Car Batteries? - (you might be surprised) No excuses anymore!

I'm loving owning and driving my ZS EV SR Mk2 Essence. Had it for 10 weeks now and it's been perfect. Last week I had the unfortunate experience of having to go back to a petrol car for a couple of days and suddenly realised how bad the driving experience was compared to the ZS EV. Even though...

I also had the low voltage battery low on charge message on my facelift model after getting it back from the local MG service department. Rather than take it back again for another full day (they'd already had the car two days plus the weekend to fix a blank dashboard they'd caused), I...

To confirm, a 2015 VW Tiguan space saver spare fits. I bought one from a local wrecker for $95. It's T145/80R18 which if you work it out the diameter is 3% bigger than the fitted P215/55R17 on my '22 ZS EV Essence. (689mm vs 668mm). That's an acceptable fit according to these guys at Jaxtyres. I...

Australian service interval is also 24months/40000km (25000miles)

For the Aussie contingent, found on eBay: V2L Vehicle to Load Adapter For Mg Zs Ev Mg4 2022-2023 TYPE 2

All good, Empty fuse socket 19 shown above in my post of 24th May is permanent live (always on) so tapped that along with socket 15 for the ACCessory tap. Thanks Team.

Hi Team, my ZS EV Gen 2 has the same fuse box layout to toadinapintglass. It's an Oct '22 build. Here's a better picture (not reversed): The 15A fuse for the 12V power socket appears to still be position 15 however the ratings of the fuses in positions 17-21 has dramatically changed...
