In my opinion the problem with the DAB radio is the aerial, or lack of it. How can two lines at the bottom of the rear window get a consistent signal? Someone needs to develop an add-on aerial. My old Ford Focus had a DAB radio that used the back window but it used a box of tricks so it used...

I went out for a pie and chip evening and I'm Just wondering if I missed something good on TV last night (13th September) as there were very few posts to catch up on this morning 😁 And if you must know it was a steak and ale pie.

Unless the tyres are directional in which case they need to be kept on the same side and the TPMS will need updating so the car knows which tyre is on which corner. The MG4 doesn't have self learning.

Scaffolding isn't cheap. When I had the flat roof done front and back the scaffolding was nearly £2k

Don't get too excited. The MG4 said that and never had an OTA update in 2 1/2 years. It just means the car can't find an update so it presumes it must be up-to-date.

There's an option in the sat-nav to turn that off

I cleaned the seal on mine with isopropyl alcohol and stuck a length of black insulation tape where it was rubbing. That was 5 months ago and it was still good when I recently part exchanged it. I don't think the salesman even noticed, and yes he did give the car a good going over even...

Just priced up solar for my property from E.on. 8 x 460w panels for £8500 plus a 5kW home battery for £3334 Prices include scaffolding, installation and a 25 year warranty

Mines a Trophy with R25 infotainment software version and a build date of 05/09/2025 in the mm/dd/yyyy format

Translation: Yes, the update will come, problems with Apple CarPlay failures, anti-collision sensor, is it normal for the windows not to close when the car is closed? The MGS5 doesn't have global closing so no the windows don't close when locking the car.

That's true if paying full price but when the dealer was giving nearly £10k off for a 5 miles pre-registered car.....

My local dealer had a 2023 MG4 Trophy in red, under 6000 miles, dealer serviced, 1 owner from new for £16500. I say had as it's now been sold, but it shows there are some bargains out there. PS. It was mine until I traded up to the MGS5 EV

Some MG4 owners had problems with the charging not starting especially with fast chargers. The fix was to take the weight off the plug to make sure the top connectors were making proper contact.

I haven't heard of any. It took nearly a year for the first updates for the MG4 but hopefully MG have learned from that and will release updates sooner. Just out of interest what software issues have you had?
