    MG4 Battery Health

    We had done 15k miles at our service and were told our battery health was still 100%, so I'm surprised yours has degraded after so few m.

    Brake discs

    We've had our LR trophy for a year, done 20k miles and had a service. No problem with brake pads and no recommendation for a change soon.

    Are you happy with your MG4?

    Yes I've also had Nissan Leafs for 8 yrs. I still love my MG4 after nearly a year (apart from a few tech foibles). It's lighter than the Leaf, which felt more solid somehow. The radio is better, but the bluetooth / audio much worse, as are the controls on the display panel. So difficult to use...

    Steering wheel message.

    Unfortunately I've never had the chance to ignore the message as it's always braked firmly, immediately as the message has come up. Most disconcerting. And yes, as others have said, it's usually as I'm going round a curve with oncoming traffic. So I guess it sees the traffic and the sensor...

    How much do you spend on charging?

    About half what it would to drive a petrol car. And I don't pay for some of my electricity as I get it free from work. I've had my MG4 since last March (had 2 Leafs for 9 yrs before that) and have done 17k miles in it. Did about 160k miles in the 2 Leafs.

    Steering wheel message.

    I've also had this when the car's been parked and charging. I ignore it and it doesn't do anything. More worrying is the one which flashes up telling me to put my hands on the steering wheel when they are, as it also jams the brakes on for me. It's always when the cruise control is also on, and...

    Remote De-misting and the updated MG app

    Mine worked fine this morning - cold day, blew hot air to defrost windscreen and warmed car nicely.

    Intelligent Octopus Go works like a dream.

    We switched to Octopus in October. They haven't even been out to fit a smart meter yet! Not impressed :(

    iSmart 2.0 app woes [merged - all discussion in here please]

    Just wondering what kind of phone you have i.e. whether it works better on some types than others. Mine isn't terribly high tech and is glitching like mad. For example, it had finished charging last night and I decided to add another 10% to it. I finally persuaded the app to change the upper...

    iSmart 2.0 app woes [merged - all discussion in here please]

    OK, wrong terminology. Couldn't log back in. Tried umpteen times over course of an hour or so. It eventually let me after a couple of hours. I'm now in but it won't actually let me do anything in the app.

    iSmart 2.0 app woes [merged - all discussion in here please]

    Yes, I've just had the same. Forced to update. Mine won't even open! Have uninstalled the app, reinstalled it and I now can't re-register my details. Not having a good day.

    Does Snow mode help?

    I've used snow mode over the last few days - in the snow and found it excellent. No wheel spinning, slipping or sliding at all. Far better than my old EV. I was led to believe that it was like starting a car in 2nd gear. I'm not sure how that would translate onto mud but I'd certainly try it if...

    Insurance Renewal

    Just renewed. We had to shop around and managed to "only" pay an increase of £100 (£425 to £525). Full no claims, 2 drivers over 50, low risk area. Pretty awful really.

    Front camera blocked error on a frosty day (UK)

    Did several trips in snow & frost over the last few days and had the same issues in same model (MG4 Trophy LR). Just kept going as the car itself is fine, and wasn't wanting to use cruise control, don't mind the other extras not working. Assumed it was the camera blocked as I didn't see what it...

    Door chime sound disappeared

    Mine was still doing it yesterday.
