After using the car yesterday the screen defrosted beautifully this morning so maybe it had gone into deep sleep mode.

Mines the same, there are 2 screws on the Trophy model to adjust dip and main beam height. I think there's either a YouTube or possibly a post on here about how to do it. Must get round to mine too.

Had a couple of stays at Forest Holidays cabins this year. They have Podpoints, as far as I know not bookable but at both sites the only time it wasn't available was at Ardgarten on change over day because their staff minibus was plugged in.

Just tried mine and I get a different fail message 'Please ensure in P gear(33)' had this before and it went away, but it appears its back again.

Or turn it off and just use the Nav screen.

'Little man' syndrome. As an IT contractor I came across a few people like that over the years. Mostly it was just hostility because we were contractors and outsiders but occasionally they were people who had absolute control over their tiny empire and needed everyone to know it.

Whilst answering the Tomato Energy thread some memories from when I started working for one of the regional gas companies back in the late 1970s. I went there as a senior programmer, grade SO 5 or 6,grades were so important then. On my start day I was introduced to what I can only describe as...

Ah yes the carefully crafted 'bonus scheme' to ensure the execs stay on the gravy train.

I totally agree, when I worked for what became BG it was like working for local government, as bad as that was I bet it is way worse now. I don't know what the SOLR process is but I bet it involves a brown envelope somewhere.

My experience is mainframe based where there are not CSV extracts that you can just run, you can write a program easily enough to do that but it's extracting the right data from what are usually complex structures that is the problem. A house that becomes an HMO started as a simple...

On the MG4 it shows %age braking effort and the consumption screen 'should' show how much has been returned. Maybe a ZS owner will be able to help.

I used to think that a mortgage was a simple entity until I worked on one. The system was written in the 1980s and still running when I retired 10 years ago, and just last year an old colleague contacted me to see if I was interested in going back to work on it!

Our Niro gives the same warning at lower %ages than the MG, maybe its just part of the way the BMS is programmed, or just that at regen 3 it can put in a higher current that the BMS will allow.

I think the issue is that what seems to be really simple, address/person/meter may be the case for the majority of customers, can be very complicated when add in properties becoming HMOs, tower blocks with communal heating, sheltered homes, meter changes, address changes, person changes, bank...

My MG4 does that when the battery is at 100%.
