Well that’s not correct if MG are to be believed. As previously reported on here I have a March 2022 LR Exclusive Pre-Facelift and have been quoted £498 for hardware and software updates which MG are classing as an enhancement, even though the car was able to be charged on a Tesla Supercharger...

PM'd

And I thought my quote of £498 was bad enough! (See post 565) Clearly MG are not bothered about retaining their existing customers in the future. I for one will never buy another MG if this farce is not resolved.

It might save a few tenths of a kWh and increase range by a mile or two but is it really worth it! 🫣

I would have thought that any improvements in economy would never offset the cost of purchasing new wheels. The MG5 is a budget EV so most owners wouldn’t be interested in changing the wheels for appearance. If they were concerned about styling they would have bought a different car. The only...

Have you checked that you have the latest firmware installed on your Zappi? I'm pretty sure there was an update three or four weeks ago?

My car had its second year service today and I had specifically requested for the EVCC software to be updated. However the service department informed me that when they contacted MG to help with the update they were told it only applied to facelift models. When I told them this was incorrect...

Estate version of MG4 to replace MG5 https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/mg-4-spawn-estate-replace-ageing-mg-5

This all looks very promising, and well done to everyone who has persevered for so long trying to resolve this issue. My car is due its second service in March so I will be asking the Dealer to apply the firmware update, hopefully free of charge. However until I have successfully charged the...

Thanks for taking the time and trouble to check. (y) Hopefully it’s unlikely that we have both lost the same cover!

Hi, I had a look under the car for the first time this evening after almost two years of ownership and it looks as if I might be missing a cover on the nearside behind the front axle. I can see connectors on the HV battery and would have expected them to be covered. I've attached two photos...

If the car only covered 15 miles over 11 months prior to buying it I’d be more concerned about the state of the HV battery to be honest! 😬

In this day and age I don’t understand why it’s in the interests of any company to provide poor customer service. With increasing competition, over supply and reduced demand for EVs you would think that MG would be doing all it could to provide decent customer care. So far my MG LR pre facelift...

It definitely won’t be a draft. It may however be a draught.....;)

Read the third post above! :rolleyes:
