    ZS used pricing

    Well, 2021 is most likely a 1.gen, so there is not very much to "control" it has no app. In what sense does she mean, you have control, if you buy a charger that can be programmed to charge at the optimum time and she has the app, there really is not a lot to "control" We have the 2.gen, both...

    Low voltage battery discharging

    I agree it is exceedingly easy to test if the charge circuit of the car is working, using a simple voltmeter. It seems unrealistic, that the charge circuit is broken alltogether, as no charging and driving will deplete the battery at a fairly quick rate, modern cars needs a lot of power to run...

    Charging the Battery

    From memory all 1.gen 42.5KWh usable cars was NMC. (But not actually possible to set it to charge to max 80% for some reason, so expect these to possibly have been charged to 100% a lot) 2.gen was LFP for standard range 50KW batteries and NMC for Long range 68KWh batteries.

    ZS used pricing

    I think atleast here (Denmark), every model had reversing camera, the difference between the top spec and the lower spec was 360 camera....Camera in the front and wing mirrors. But to be honest.......The reversing camera is pretty rubbish, especially if it is dark. My kids says the reversing...

    Default Settings

    Well the problem with the car not being able to heat properly and misting up atleast, is probably down to you changing it to eco. Remember, ECO is just a bunch of settings that use less power, hence the fact that the heater is not allowed to draw as much current. The power usage in the car is...

    charging Cable

    I can not tell you what went wrong, but it must have been the car sensing something was wrong or some other reason why it stopped the charge. I had an instance where my charger would start, then stop right after, when i went to the app or the car, it would start, then stop. That turned out to...

    Android Auto wireless Adapter for 69 plate

    I dont know how other dongles work, but i can tell you my experience with the AA Wireless. Positives : Works great, connects fine and so on. Negatives : The car wakes up at relevant intervals, which powers on the USB port, powering up the AA, this makes the car power up bluetooth which means...

    MG ZS EV - No start, displays EP

    Hi This post is mostly for the future if someone comes looking, i had a search on here and found only one mention of this and it was an open ended one where the initial poster, did not come back to post an update. So last thursday the wife drove to work in the ZS EV, when she finished work and...

    charging Cable

    No, the car onboard charger actually does not signal to the box if it wants one or 3 phases, it turns out. It gets a "signal" from the box about what the max current it is allowed to draw, asks the charger to please connect the power and then it senses on the inputs what it is getting....1...

    charging Cable

    That's a complete lie. The cable is literally just 2 connectors, a lenght of wire and a resistor. There is nothing in the cable that can affect the charging....Other than if there is a bad connection but that would lead to something getting warm and that would be visible. If this were true...
