    New Owner - Passenger Doors Not Opening From Inside on MG5 Facelift – Normal or Fault?

    My wife constantly encounters this (front passenger) so I lean over & v/quick 2 pulls & door OK (response...Grrr!). nb. rear nearside nothing! But ( I've only just twigged this) when I totally power off the car, both nearside doors behave themselves?

    "vehicle not responding" in app

    I'll upset the apple cart, just a little. I've not encountered the issue for quite a few months now. Today late afternoon put the car on charge & immediately the app provides status etc. TBH I only use the app when charging. I turned off charging (early evening) via the app & restarted the...

    Start/stop and radio list

    I believe that's normal. On MG 5 FL I switch off then 10mins later radio etc switches off nb. whilst I wait when picking up G/daughter from school!

    MG5 not charging.

    Not sure if this helps/hinders, but I switched phone & had to load all apps including iSmart. I noticed default charge setting was 'health mode (80%)' which is my normal setting. Was this read back from the car or (using the App for the 1st time) it defaults to this value?

    Cannot get CarScanner app to work with my MG5 LR Exclusive

    I do use Vgate obdII with Car Scanner (Android) for our MG5 FL. All OK. Just one query; does the App + mobile phone type (iPhone/Android) impact behaviour?

    Rear Tyre excessive wear on inside of both rear tyres.

    My average (with various makes of car ICE over 40+yrs) was nearer the 20k miles mark. I part ex'd our ZS EV mk1(less than 20k) yet the tyre treads were great. Now we've an MG5 & regardless of the wear you mentioned I'll be pleased if I can get 45k!!

    360° camera

    I did pose the same question sometime last year to MG. They got back (pretty quick!) & suggested I contact the dealer! mmh. Taking that as a no I purchased a DashCam (Amazon) with front/rear cameras. Works well, but irritating given the cables etc.

    Recent Valuation 30% of what I paid less than 2 years years ago...!

    I’ve been tracking my 5 (23 plate, FL LR) & other manufacturers for awhile. And yes got more for my ZS in part-ex than my 5 is now worth! I've noticed whether off the forecourt ( few miles) or 2nd hand all EV prices are down. It means I’ll keep the MG5 rather than renew every 3 years.

    Reverse Camera Setup Settings.

    Ok your LH so the bottom LH corner of screen is your 360 tab. If selected whilst car switched on it should bring up the display with all cameras active. Otherwise, with reverse selected, rear camera display should pop up by default. It is or not displaying?

    Reverse Camera Setup Settings.

    As to the MG5 (FL) are you referring to the parking camera(s) or an additional CAM recorder? If the latter best you provide more details. But if you're referring to the car's parking cameras, which sounds doubtful, then select the home screen, then the 360 icon... bottom right corner of the dash.

    Occasional glitch - can't select D or R after switch on

    Similar experience on MG5; took me out of D or R. Initially thought it was seat belt not engaged, but nope finally established the driver's door not fully closed! N.B. took me a few months to twig it!
