    LED, Adjusting headlights and rotating bulb?

    Back in the day when people swapped their halogen bulbs for Xenon the police were very hard on people here, but those were also typically very bright to the point you would get a big white spot on your vision for minutes after passing one, but nowadays with better LED's that do not blind people...

    ZS EV LR Will suddenly not fast charge

    2 things i can think of. 1. 2000 km in 4 days, all on CCS, could make the car derate the charging due to repeated CCS charges, which can be harder on the battery, the car will derate the charge speed to protect the batteries (Well to make sure they dont go below the warranty limit, to prevent...

    The A button next to the handbrake

    Says on page 85 here, that it is a shortcut button, but i did not find any mention of how to set it. https://www.mg.co.uk/sites/default/files/2021-11/MG%20ZS%20Owner%20Manual.pdf On the 2.gen it is in the menu on the infotainment somewhere, i guess it must be the same on the 1.gen I think on...

    Our ZS EV is connected to our Home Assistant, home automation system, the integration "pretends" to be an "app user" so this works just like if you open up the app. Here we have been without connection to the server, just like if we opened the app in these intervals since Januar 1 January 2...

    ZS-EV Software

    The protocol for DC fastcharging is a LOT more complicated than the (can barely be called a) protocol used for AC charging. The DC charging protocol includes a LOT of different stuff that can be communicated, i bet the reason the Tesla charging does not work for MG's without a software update...

    Android Auto wireless Adapter for 69 plate

    Their system is really strange for us "foreigners" 69 = September 1, 2019 until February 29 2020 But if it was registered between March 1, 2019 and August 31, 2019 it would be a 19 plate. Here it is not possible to figure out when it was first registered from the license plate alone, but...
