    VOTE TESLA SUPERCHARGES with MG5

    71 plate pre fl LR. Asked about updates at service 1 month ago. Didn’t happen… Haven’t needed to use Tesla chargers so imagine it wouldn’t work.

    Ventilation / Condensation

    For me in my 71 plate pre FL, it’s a/c on, temp at 16 deg C and fan speed of 1 bar. This works for me. I’ve done various methods and find this is the best and I’ve not got the windows open on a damp cold day.

    MG5 Second Service

    I would shop around, mine was at least £200 cheaper than that at Blights in Devon. They help by having their servicing costs on their website so you can see what each service will cost.

    Deal Agreed MG5 Mud flaps

    I have a spare set of mg5 mud flaps that were sent to me when I ordered some from Ali Express.

    Replacing offside/drivers wing mirror - advice/hints/tips

    Right I thought I would give an update. I have replaced the wing mirror unit and learning has occurred. The video of the ZS card removal is the same for the MG5. It is useful to watch. You can lever the plastic cover off the area where the wing mirror unit bolts are located. You do need to take...

    Replacing offside/drivers wing mirror - advice/hints/tips

    Well I’ve had a look this morning and I don’t need to remove the door card. I just used a thin blunt edge to lever off the plastic guard covering the mirror area of the door. It reveals 3 torx screws and the cabling bundle. So it should be a straightforward job once the part is in. There is a...
