@WardyMush - Really useful to get your feedback about you having had loads of updates/fixes, but still being on the R55 version. Great stuff! :) It sounds like our collective general guess/assumption that this version (displayed on our central console) was related many of the the 'bugs' (e.g...

One of the (very) few things that annoy me about my car is that it does not automatically switch on the front parking radar, at slow speeds. For example, if I drive forward to my closed garage door, it would not beep even if I was about to hit it. The workaround is either: Switch on the 360...

I am not an experienced mechanic, but if it was me (assuming you bought this in past 30 days) I would reject it. No brainer to me. If you don't do it now, it will be a lot trickier to reject later

@Sparky2 - Very entertaining :) You make a good point - I had not really thought about the quality of roads. 99% of my driving is on either motorways or main roads in town centres. There has been very little B/C road 'rural' driving. This has probably helped the car's systems mostly work 'as...

@Sparky2 For the sake of balance, I have had my PHEV for just over 4 months now, and I love it. On the whole, I find the in-car touchscreen works well (once you get used to its minor quirks). I have very few problems/complaints although (I admit) it is not flawless. For example: Twice I got the...

No problem. Both times it happened to me was in bright sunshine on a warm day. But equally it does not always occur, even on the hottest day, so I'm baffled why it suddenly occurs. I'm not concerned enough to raise it with my garage at this stage.

Yes, this problem has been seen before: Camera green screen I have had the problem twice in the approx 4 months since I had the car. If you switch the car fully off, and then wait a while (more than just a few minutes, but typically an hour should be fine) then restart the car, the green screen...

When happens when you press the 'wing mirror' open/close button?

@jeffgolding - 90 miles on EV only! Wow, you must live at the top of a very tall hill! :) I reckon I get on average 65 miles on EV only. At best I've done 70 miles a handful of times. I'm very pleased with it though.

@BPM06 - I agree that the most irritating thing is the MP3 playback from USB, specifically trying to play an album in order. In theory, the instructions here are supposed to be a workaround: USB MUSIC & FOLDERS However, that was a huge amount of work for me to do, so I just did some simpler...

Yes I agree that there is too much treble, but also too much bass. Or, to put it another way, midrange is too low!. However, I have found that (after owning the car for approx 3 months) I have got used to it, and it does not annoy me. However, most of what I listen to are podcasts and...

Hopefully this link will help someone who reads this thread: How to reset service interval (remove 'Service Vehicle Immediately' warning)

Two weeks ago, I was on a long drive. When my mileage hit approx 6,200 miles I got a 'Service Vehicle Immediately' warning appear: Clearly the cause was that the car thought my service was overdue: I found a couple of posts (in a different forum) where it seems that some of the early cars...

I am not a mechanic, but it could be a stone got stuck in the disc brake of one of your rear wheels. See here: Grinding/ Scraping Noise from MG5 LR and here: Horrendous noise!!

Wow, kudos to you. This is such impressive stuff! When I first got my PHEV I had lofty aims of doing some analysis over time in a spreadsheet, but not as thorough as this, and I soon lost some petrol receipts .. So well done for this!
