As I've reported elsewhere (this topic seems to be spreading into multiple threads) my S5 is currently with the dealer, where their "Master Technician" has been running diagnostic tests for some days and communicating his findings to MG Technical. Very early on in the process, MG Technical...

I see that message also! I use AdGuard for Android to "remove" the plethora of ads that seem to infest Android. Within its (AdGuard's) App Management settings I see a message that MGiSMART is "Not routed through AdGuard" but only by turning AG off I can access iSMART??? I've sent a support...

@marcbesty Welcome to the forums! If you do a quick search in the MGS5 forum area you will find there are a number of us experiencing exactly what you describe! Mine is currently on a Diagnostic Check with my local dealer, who has, apparently, managed to convince MG Technical that there is...

Assuming you mean MG-pilot, that was present in both versions. As @Everest says, the easiest external difference to be seen is the front of the vehicle.

I think, from my experience, AI is correct and the dealer is wrong! As I've reported elsewhere, having also experienced the "dead" 12v battery problem (at least 4 times) and the dealer being unable to find any fault, despite an initial 2 full days of diagnostics, I've been keeping a daily log...

I'm sure you know that your DNO must maintain the voltage within the range of 216 to 253 volts in order to be regulation compliant. Nearly 10v below the minimum suggests there is, indeed, a problem with your supply! As someone who, in the early days of my EVSE, suffered the opposite problem...

I can relate to these figures, to some extent (details below). Since my series of 12v battery failures and consequent use of a booster pack, along with the fact that a two-day diagnostic check by my local MG dealer failed to find any fault, I have been quite studiously checking the state of my...

For me, there was no need to clear the cache. Simply opening the app and going to the User Manual tab, it immediately downloaded. But I do agree, those other User Manuals have now disappeared!

Yes, working here again this morning.

Ditto here!

@Blackbartblues and @Iwasyoungonce I think you both need to give it time! The current ambient temperature does nothing to aid better economy and we, as owners, need to "learn" how to best "drive" our cars in order to achieve increased range! I previously owned an MG5 and it took me some...
