The reality is the MG is a great car to drive. I mostly really enjoy it. But the tech around it isn't the best. Issues with phantom breaking, DAB, Android Auto, Boot not opening correctly, the app can't communicate with the car most the time and is unresponsive.... The 12v management is...

I have battery tested my 12v battery and its state of health is 100%. In my case its certaintly nothing to do with the health of the 12v.

My car died the other day for the second time since owning the car. First incident for Nov 25 and now again last week. Both times I had spent extended time in the car without having it in ready mode. First time fitting a screen protector. Second time doing an extended clean inside the...

Do we know the versions numbers to see if you are on the latest. Cheers

Is this battery pre-heating or cabin pre-heating ?

Sounds like a very worrying problem. No menthion of this within the UK yet. Doesn't mean its not an issue though.

Ah what a shame you had to sell it. Good luck with whatever you get next.

Just lock it like normal people :D

Had the car since October and its mostly been cold. I do Normal mode Local roads - one pedal drive and energy saving on - gives me 3 to 3.6. If its cold and a short journey we get 2 to 3... I think heating the car up on a short journey is a killer. Motorway doing steady 70 mph - one pedal...

2500 miles in and we have the squealing when reverse breaking. As others have said it just seems to be a bit of surface rust.

I went for this one because I also wanted to cover off my Skoda Kodiaq 2L. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09CZ96Q2C?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Good battery management habits isn't a bad idea though. If you are sat in the car for extended periods of car and not moving e.g. waiting in a car park etc. Hit the brake pedal to put the car in READY mode. This make sure the car is awake and drawing power from the main battery and not the 12V.

In October I went away for 7 days and came back to a working car. At New Year went away for 8 days and came back to a working car. I had the 12V battery fail once but I think its down to me switching the car off rather than the infotainment screen while I was fixing a screen protector. Got a...

I am just wondering what all this is telling you or doing which isn't currently being done by the app ? Whats the killer benefit ?
