Thanks for your response and I am glad you have found a solution to suit your needs. Perhaps a dinosaur like myself should have kept my old radio/cassette player.

Good idea but do you not agree we should not have to find ways around modern technology to provide acceptable entertainment in our cars?

Thanks Mickey, I suppose my LPs at 33 rpm will be the next to go!

Thanks Kevin, Unfortunately the MP3 player does not have Bluetooth. Good advice regarding the adapter which I may go for. Again seems a backward step from MG that the MP3 worked fine in the ZS but MG5 is more fickle.

I have recently changed from a MG ZS to the MG5 fl and assumed the infotainment was faulty as my MP3 player (working fine in the ZS) would not work in the MG5. The dealer tells me it’s not a fault and it may be possible to use connect the MP3 player to the car via the headphone jack socket and...

Hi Dave and welcome to the forum. I live in Inverness and have just sold my ZS after 4 years ownership. Loved the car but changed to MG5 for extra range and practicality. I received a type 2 cable with the MG5 which is surplus and would be willing to sell for £50. Please contact me if you want...

I like and understand your logic. Unfortunately only politicians can claim “an honest mistake” - when caught out - Joe Public tends to have less luck

I blame Government policy which prevented insurers hiking up premiums to loyal (lazy) customers who just renewed with their current insurer regardless of increased cost. The insurers still need their outrageous profits so we all now suffer.

Lots of useful advice already but I would also suggest when charging any 12v battery in situ it is a good idea to connect the negative lead from the charger to part of the car’s bodywork (a bolt head etc) rather than the actual negative battery terminal.

So when someone shouted DUCK! They didn’t mean bend down?

I would leave it the right way up if I were you.

I have no connection to this company, nor have I used the product but it may be worth a try. If you were unable to apply it yourself I am sure you could find a local independent garage or tradesman who could apply the product for you. Hope this helps. Iain...

Just to report that my MG ZS was in to Frasers of Falkirk for its second service last month. During the service a knock from the steering was identified. New part ordered and fitted today 21/11/2022. Knowing that other forum members have had issues with steering problems, delays to obtaining and...

Well done and thanks for sharing.
