    MG5 Steering - a concern or not?

    Had the same "knotchy steering" today on the motorway doing 50mph with my emergency tyre on passenger side rear (thanks to a nail). I put it down to a one off due to the emergency tyre which wasn't as inflated as it should have been. Will see what happens when I get the proper wheel back on.

    Snow, steep hills and the MG5 LR

    Interesting as I had this happen a few months ago but not in snow or ice . Going down a steep winding road and all of a sudden there wasn't any regen so I had to use the brakes. I was going pretty slow anyway but it did surprise me. Hasn't happened before or since so I took it as a one off glitch.

    Car off and charging, how to see % of charge?

    Strangely my wife's Samsung has less trouble with AA than my Redmi Note 10 using the same cable. I have also discovered you can spell street names to Google maps for navigation which comes in handy. Saves me swearing at it so much!

    Home smart charger

    I have a tethered zappi and Octopus Go. Schedule charging through the Myenergie (Zappi) app between 00:30 and 04:30. Works fine and easy once set up. Might get solar panels one day.

    MG5 LR 2022 Infotainment

    I have had a couple of occasions (over 3 months of having it) where the info screen has just gone black and nothing has worked. Both times I was connecting to/using AA. Turning car off for a few minutes and back on again fixed it. I do have issues with AA regularly but couldn't tell you if...

    Temperamental Navigation Screen

    I am forever having issues with AA as well. BBC sounds app rarely works and when it does it often crashes Google maps and I end up with a black screen. Also find loses connectivity often and don't get me started on the voice dialling or navigation, I think I am running about a 95% failure rate...
